A) profit/original price x100 =percentage profit
(Profit: 360-300=$60)
=60/300 x100
=20%
b) two cameras (original price): 300x2= $600
two cameras (price sold): 360x2 = $720
Profit without discount: 720-600= $120
120-100= $20 discount
20/720 x100 =2.78%
0.05n + 0.25q = 1.60
q = 3n
0.05n + 0.25(3n) = 160
0.05n + 0.75n = 1.60...multiply by 100 to get rid of the decimals
5n + 75n = 160...answer D
