Answer:

She finally sold 570 oranges

Profit %= 58.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity bought=600

Price=5 for GH¢3.00

Total cost price=600/5 * GH¢3.00

=120*GH¢3.00

=GH¢360.00

5% of 600 oranges got rotten

=5/100*600

=30 Oranges were rotten

I) How any oranges did she finally sell?

She finally sold

Sold oranges= Total oranges - Rotten oranges

=600-30

=570 oranges

Selling price=GH¢1.00 * 570 oranges

=GH¢570.00

ii) Find her loss or profit percent

Profit or loss percent= Selling price - cost price / cost price * 100

% profit or loss=S.P - C.P / C.P * 100

=GH¢570.00 - GH¢360.00 / GH¢360.00 * 100

=GH¢210.00/GH¢360.00 *100

=0.5833 * 100

=58.33% profit

using pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2

a^2 +8^2 =14^2

a^2 +64 = 196

A cookie recipe that yields 48 cookies calls for 2 cups of flour. a different cookie recipe that yields sixty cookies calls for
Serhud [2]
48 cookies from 2 cups of flour,  rate = 48 cookies / 2 cups = 24 cookies / cup

60 cookies from 3 cups of flour,  rate = 60 cookies / 3 cups = 20 cookies / cup

If the rates were proportional, the rates would have the same answers.

Therefore the rates are not proportional.
