Answer:
9%
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 1/5 good = 1500*1/5= 300
Profit= 5%
SP = (profit+100)/100*CP
SP= (5+100)/100*300
SP = 105/100*300
SP= 1.05*300= 315
Cost of 4/5 good = 1500*4/5= 1200
Profit= 10%
SP= (profit+100)/100*CP
SP= (10+100)/100*1200
SP = 110/100*1200
SP= 1.10*1200= 1320
Total SP = 315+1320= 1635
Net profit= 1635-1500= 135
Profit% = 135/1500*100%
Profit% = 0.09*100%
Profit% = 9%

= 2 13/14 . . . feet remaining

Addition and subtraction of fractions can be accomplished using a formula that does not rely on finding a least common denominator. In this case, the denominators have no common factors, so their product is, in fact, the least common denominator.

Step-by-step explanation:
Things I notice about this problem:
- "Difference" indicates subtraction.
- When a problem simply says "a number," I replace it with a variable.
It is written out like this:
