Answer: $4110.8 (more likely - 95% sure) or $2,107 (less likely)
Step-by-step explanation: It could be $4110.8 because you have the take the total they made and subtract is from the cost of the toys ($7,230-$2,450=$4,780). Then you have to take the result of that and get 14% of it, then subtract that from the $4,780 amount. Then you get the final answer which is $4110.8.

However, it could also be $2,107 because the question itsn't that clear in the second sentence. It could be saying that $2,450 is the price of the toys (which is what I assumed above), or that it is the profit that the $2,450 (which I used below). I think that the above answer is more likely because if not then the first number would never be used. Anyways here is the second way it could be.

If I was you, I would do the first one ($4110.8) because I really think it is that one. I just put the other one here just in case.
There was 16 apples in the first box and 8 apples in the second box initially.
