Answer:

$ 74

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that: Lydia can make 12 bars of soap in an hour and she works 4 hours a day and 7 days a week. So, in a given week she makes [tex]12\times 4\times 7=336[/tex] soaps.

Now, we know that there are 52 weeks in an year. So, Lydia makes 336 x 52=17472 soaps in a year.

Now, it is also given that the profit Lydia makes per bar of soap is $0.22. Therefore, the total profit Lydia will make in an year for 17472 soaps  will be given by:

17472 x 0.22=$ 3840 (rounded to the nearest ten dollars)
