Question

Tony’s club is selling oranges to raise money. For every box they sell, they get 1 1/8 dollars profit. They have sold 75 boxes already. How many more boxes must they sell to raise 180 dollars?

Answer 1

`1(1)/(8) = (9)/(8) = 1.125, \\ 75*1.125= 84.375`

84.375 is the profit ALREADY made, so now subtract that from 180 dollars to get
95.625 $ needed, now divide by amount of profit per box...

Answer should be 85 boxes
