Answer 1

Answer:

Total loss in three days = $393.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Loss amount = [-3/8] of normal profit

Normal profit per day = $350

Find:

Total loss in three days

Computation:

Total loss in three days = 3 [Normal profit per day][Loss amount]

Total loss in three days = 3 [350][3/8]

Total loss in three days = 3[131.25]

Total loss in three days = $393.75
