The store will make profit of $15.67 on each lawnmower and a total profit of $658.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Price of 42 lawnmowers = $3500
Price of 1 lawnmower = [tex]\frac{3500}{42}[/tex]
Price of 1 lawnmower = $83.33
Selling price of lawnmower = $99
Profit = Selling price - purchase price
Profit = 99 - 83.33 = $15.67
Profit on 42 lawnmowers = 42*15.67 = $658.14
Rounding off to nearest whole dollar;
Profit on 42 lawnmowers = $658
The store will make profit of $15.67 on each lawnmower and a total profit of $658.
