Answer:

129.6% profit

Step-by-step explanation:

1)Firstly in order to find the overall profit you take away $2.70 from $6.20 = $3.50

2)The next step is to put the profit over the amount paid = 3.50/2.70 = 35/27.

3)In order to find the percentaage you multiply 35/27 by 100 = 129.629 recurring. This rounded to 1 decimal place is 129.6%

vitfil [10]

in this problem what you are really looking for is which of these sets is a pathagorean triple. That means it will solve the pathagorean theorem. (a sqaured + b squared = c squared) c is always going to be the largest number or the hypotenuse. if you plug all the number sets into the theorem, only one works and that is 7, 24, 25 which is your answer.

A triangle should have 3 points and 3 sides. Let say that the point is ABC. Then the sides would be AB, AC and BC.
There are 3 strings with a different length that can be put into the sides. Assuming the string can be used once, then the possible way would be:
3!/(1+3-3)!= 3!/1!= 3*2*1= 6 ways
