Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

The money he spent:

20 x 6 = 120

=> The number of flowers he bought:

=> 15 x 20 = 300

3/5 of 300 = 900/5 = 180

So, he sold 180 flowers for 70cents.

=> 180 x 70 = 12600 cents

=> 126  dollars

The remaining for 50 cents

=> 2/5 x 300 = 600 / 5 = 120

So, he sold 120 flowers for 50 cents

=> 120 x 50 = 6000 cents

=> 60 dollars

He got a total of 60 + 126 = 186 dollars.

He spent 120 dollars in the starting to buy the flowers.

=> 186 - 120

=> 66 dollars

So, he gets a profit of 66 dollars.

330

20 * 6 equals 120 that is the cost price

and 3/5 of the 15 flowers is 9 which was sold for 7

and the remaining that is 15 - 9 that's 6 sold for 50 each

now times it by 70 * 9 equals 630 50 * 6 equals 300 so 630 - 300 equals to 330 that is the profit

I hope this helps
