Question

a jewelry store buys 24 necklaces for $300. the store wants to make a profit of $540. assuming it sells all 24 necklaces, how much should the store charge for each necklace?

Answer 1

If its meaning making a profit after the $300 then:
540+300=840
840/24= 33.60
They would charge $33.60 per necklace.

If you were meaning a profit of $540 total then:
540/24=22.5
They would charge $22.50 per necklace.
