Question

A seafood restaurant claims an increase of 1,750.00 over its average profit during a week where it introduced a special of baked clams, if this is true, how much extra profit did it receive per day

Answer 1

Because you know the total increase in profit for the week, and you know there are seven days in a week, you have to divide the goal profit by seven, to find the increased profit per day.

$1750 / 7 days = $250 per day
