Question

Reese spent $4.95 on cookie supplies. He sold 24 cookies at $2 each. His profit is how much more he got from selling the cookies than he spent. What was his profit?

Answer 1

$44.05 i’m not sure but this is my answer

Answer 2

He spent $4.95 on cookie supplies and made 24 from that. He sold each cookie for $2 a piece. 24*2= 48. Now, he made $48 but he had to spend 4.95 on supplies. You have to subtract 48 by 4.95. That comes out to an answer of 43.05.

He made a total of $43.05 from selling cookies.

Hope this helped!
