Amount of profit made by the company in the second quarter = $4 million
Let us assume the amount of profit made in the first quarter = x
Also let us assume the amount of profit made in the third quarter = y
Amount of profit made by the company in the first quarter was 1/3 less than that made in the second quarter
Then
Amount of profit made in first quarter
3x = 4 million dollars
x = 4/3 million dollars
Amount of profit made in the third quarter
4y/5 = 4 million dollars
4y = 5 * 4 million dollars
4y = 20 million dollars
y = 5 million dollars
Then total amount of profit made in the three quarters = (4/3) + 4 + 5 million dollars
                                                                                       = (4 + 12 + 15)/3 million dollars
                                                                                       = (31/3) million dollars
                                                                                       = 10 1/3 million dollars
So the total profit made during the three quarters was 10 1/3 million dollars.

Crank

Answer:

People for top positions in organization must have clear sense of right and wrong and courage and honesty to say the truth.

Explanation:

The main idea of a paragraph is one which the authors wants to prove with the help of examples, evidences, or by appealing to emotions, logic, or moral values. This idea is the backbone and purpose of the paragraph.

In this case, the authors is trying to persuade the readers of the importance of clarity of thought, courage and honesty to say the truth for people on top positions on an organization. He opines that these qualities are even more important than intelligence and substantive knowledge. The author has just named these qualities, he is yet to prove (mat be later) that why and how these qualities are more important than other qualities.
