Profit = 8%

If the briefcase was marked down 20% from 1500 you multiply 1500 x .2 = 300 in order to calculate the discount.

Calculate the discounted price:

1500 - 300 = 1200

Calculate 10% discount of 1200:

1200 x .1 = 120

Calculate the sales price:

1200 - 120 = 1080

The last step is to calculate the profit/loss is the cost is 1000.

The briefcase sold for 1080 and the company paid 1000 for it, so there was a profit of 80.

The percentage is calculate by dividing 80/1000 = 8% profit

8 limes/$2.00 You have $5. How much change would you receive after purchasing 12 limes?​
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

2 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

if 8 limes costs 2 dollars, then 4 limes cost 1 dollar

you purchased 12 limes so since you already know what 8 limes coms, you could subtract that

12-8=4

now you need to find out how much for 4 limes which would be half the price of 8 limes.. which should be 1 dollar

so $2.00+$1.00= $3.00

finally 5 dollars minus 3 would result in a change of 2 dollars
