You are the owner of a small bakery. This week the bakery has orders for 24 dozen cupcakes. Each dozen sells for $16. Suppose your profit is
3/4 of the selling price for each dozen. How much profit will you earn on all of the cupcake orders?

Respuesta :

Answer: 3/4 of $384 = $288

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum asks for price 16 x orders 24 = $384 revenue Example   16 x 24 = 240 +148  = 384 $10 x 24 + $6 x24 = 384  Then to find profit of 3/4 of 384 same as percentages = 0.75 x 384 = 288 = $288 Profit. You can also do without calculator or fraction conversion 1/2 and add 1/4. 388 = 194 (1/2) + 97 (1/4)  = 288  for no decimal place questions as 74% for example = £284.16 so you need to know what numbers actually divide clean into 100. and what numbers divide into 88 if you are doing without calculator.
