Question

A market buys mixed nuts at $16 per pound. In order to make a 75% profit, how much will the market charge you per pound?

Answer 1

For this, all you'll wanna do is add the answer to this problem to your original number...

16× .75 = 12

now add...

16 + 12 = 28$ per pound...

to make a 75% profit on the markets investment....I think I'll have a salad instead at that price...
