a salesman bought a case of 48 backpacks for $576. he sold 17 of them fot $18 at the swap meet, and the rest were sold to a department store for $25 each. how much was the saleman's profit?
Well, if he sold 17 of them for $18, 17 times 18 = $306. Now he has 31 backpacks left. 31 times 25 = $775. 775 + 306= $1081 (final answer) Hope it helps!!!
