The highest possible number of inhabitants in that little town are 743.

<h3>What are inhabitant?</h3>

A person or animal that lives in a place is called as the inhabitant.

Suppose there is this little town with a finite number of people: (1) No two inhabitants have exactly the same number of hairs. (2) No inhabitant has exactly 743 hairs or no hairs at all. (3) There are more inhabitants than there are hairs on the head of any inhabitant.

Let say there are 519 people in the town. and make them stand in a line with increasing number of hairs on their heads. This way, there will be a person on the last, who has no hair.

There are more number of people than the hairs. From bald to 742 hairs, 743 is the limit.

Thus, the highest possible number of inhabitants in that little town are 743.

I need help with this.
likoan [24]

a quick clarification and then some.

Profit is what's leftover after the cost is subtracted from the revenue, or namely, if you sell a product for some amount, say 10, and you sold 100 of those, so you made 10*100 or 1000, that's the revenue or the income coming in, however, in making the product you had to cover some expenses, like if it's clothing, well, you have to buy the garment and saw it, have premises and machines to make the clothing and so on, all that's expenses, and since it's out of pocket money, is Cost, if you subtract that Cost from the 1000 in Revenue, what's leftover, that surplus is Profit.

this company sells "p" units, each at $855, so their Revenue will just be 855p, expenses or Cost is a fixed amount of $6780, so the profit comes from their difference.

on a given month, they sold 250, namely p = 250, so their Revenue is just 250*855 = 213750 bucks, however, we need to remove the Costs of 6780, 213750 - 6780 = 206970, that's our Profit.

now, the CEO takes a bite of 15% of that

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{15\% of 206970}}{\left( \cfrac{15}{100} \right)206970}\implies 31045.5
