Answer:

  £3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of cans Mae bought was ...

  (12 cans/box)×(7 boxes) = 84 cans

The revenue from sales is ...

  (3/4)(84)(70p) +(1/4)(84)(40p) = 84(3/4×70p +1/4×40p) = 84(52.5p +10p)

  = £52.50

The cost of the drinks was ...

  (£7/box)×(7 boxes) = £49.00

Mae's profit is the difference between her sales revenue and her cost:

  profit = revenue - cost

  profit = £52.50 -49.00 = £3.50

Inessa [10]

The profit he made from selling his hearing aids at a profit of 17% is $234.26.

<h3>How to calculate the profit obtained?</h3>

To calculate the profit obtained, we must calculate how much money is equal to 17% of $1,378.

  • $1,378 ÷ 100 = $13.78
  • $13.78 × 17 = $234.26

Based on the above, 17% of $1,378 equals $234.26. On the other hand, to calculate the final sale price of the earphone, we add the initial value plus the value of the profit.

$1,378 + $234.26 = $1,612.26
