A person sold 100 shares of a stock at a loss of 40%.
selling price for the 100 shares was $3,000
Let the stock was bought at $x then we can write

Hence Amount paid for the Stock was $5000
First write the inequality: 15

4.75x +3.50
Then to solve, first subtract 3.50 from both sides to get:
11.50

4.75x
Then divide by 4.75 to get 2.42, and since you can't buy .42 of a bag of fruit, you round down. So your final answer would be 2 bags of fruit.
