The gross profit is $72.45

The percentage profit is 82.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit is the earning on selling a product or item in price more than its purchasing price.

Given

Purchase price of Lawn mower = $87.50

Sale price = $159.95

Profit = Sale Price - Purchase Price

=159.95-87.50

=72.45

The percentage profit is:

Percentage\ Profit=\frac{Profit}{Purchase\ price}*100\\=\frac{72.45}{87.50}*100\\=0.828*100\\=82.8\%

The gross profit is $72.45

The percentage profit is 82.8%

muminat

Answer:

Probability = \frac{1}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Oranges = 3

Apples = 5

Banana = 2

Total = 10

Required

Determine the probability of 1 orange, 1 apple and 1 banana

Since, order is not important:

Probability = P(Orange) * P(Apple) * P(Banana)

Probability = \frac{3}{10} * \frac{5}{9} * \frac{2}{8}

<em>The difference in the numerator is as a result of picking the fruit without replacement</em>

Probability = \frac{30}{720}

Probability = \frac{1}{24}
