Question

4.John purchased a roll of cloth 2m long for $205.00 . He resold the cloth in lengths of 250 mm for $40.00 per length. Calculate profit he made.​

Answer 1

profit $115.00

Explanation:

1 m = 1000mm

2 m = 1000 × 2 = 2000mm

2000 ÷ 250 = 8

he sold 8 pieces of cloth

40 × 8 = $320.00

profit

320 - 205 = $115.00
