Answer:

<em>Leila would make a profit of $48</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

~ Knowing that there is some sort of proportion that can be formed through Leila and Jo's profit, we could form even a proportionality to compute the profit Leila makes given jo's profit of $60 ~

<em>If is is known that Leila: Jo, 4: 5, we could form such a proportion:</em>

4                5       ⇒     where x - Leila's profit knowing Jo's profit of $60

x               60

<em>Now let us solve for x, through cross multiplication:</em>

5x = 60 * 4,

5x = 240,

x =<em> profit of $48</em>

Otrada [13]

When multiplying the same number raised to different powers add the powers together.

3 + 2 + 5 = 10

Because you are also multiplying a value without a power you need to add 1 to the sum of the powers:

10 + 1 = 11

Answer: 6^11
