You made a total profit of $10.75 during the first break.

Solución

Let's break down the problem step by step. 1. Normal price per sweet = 20¢. 2. If someone buys 10 sweets or more, they get a 25% discount. That means the discounted price per sweet is:   20¢ × (100% – 25%) = 20¢ × 0.75 = 15¢. During the first break, you sold: • 35 sweets at the full (loose) price of 20¢ each. • 25 sweets at the discounted price of 15¢ each. Now, calculate the revenue from each: • Revenue from full-price sweets = 35 × 20¢ = 700¢ (or $7.00). • Revenue from discounted sweets = 25 × 15¢ = 375¢ (or $3.75). Total revenue (profit) = 700¢ + 375¢ = 1075¢, which is $10.75. Thus, your profit for that break is $10.75.

To solve the problem, let's first calculate the income from selling your sweets. Selling at 20 cents per sweet, you sold 35 loose sweets and 25 sweets at a discounted price. For the loose sweets: - Income from 35 sweets = 35 * 20 cents = 700 cents = $7.00 For the discounted sweets: - The price after a 25% discount = 20 cents - (25% of 20 cents) = 20 cents - 5 cents = 15 cents. - Income from 25 discounted sweets = 25 * 15 cents = 375 cents = $3.75 Total income = $7.00 + $3.75 = $10.75. Next, we need to determine your costs. Assuming you bought the sweets at a price of 10 cents each: - Total cost for 60 sweets (35 + 25) = 60 * 10 cents = 600 cents = $6.00. Now to calculate your profit: - Profit = Total Income - Total Cost = $10.75 - $6.00 = $4.75. So, your profit is $4.75!
