Suppose you own a business that sells retail clothes to the public. You already have two branches located at different locations. You want to know the total sales you get for the year. Branch A's profit is worth $4,204,809. On the other hand, business is slower in Branch B whose profit is only $506,211. The total sales would be:
Total sales = $4,204,809 + $506,211 = $4,711,020
