Answer 1

Answer:

33.3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so if she made a 100 percent on the gloves, then she sold them for 8 dollars, because 4 + 1.00(4) = 8.

48 - 8 = 40

She sold the skirt for 40 dollars, and if that's at a 20 percent profit, then we can do a proportion

$\frac{40}{1.20} = \frac{x}{1.00}$

If we solve for x, we figure out that x = 33.33333 repeating.

So out answer to the nearest decimal place is 33.3 pounds
