For $9, a shopkeeper buys 13 dozen pencils. However, 3 dozen broke in transit. At what price per dozen must the shopkeeper sell the remaining pencils to make back 1/3 of the whole cost (enter monetary value e.g. $1.23) correct answer $0.30 Explanation For $9, a shopkeeper buys 13 dozen pencils, However, 3 dozen broke in transit. So, we know that there are 13 dozen - 3 dozen = 10 dozen
whole cost: 1/3 x 9 or 3 divided by 9 = $3.00.
So, to make back $3.00 total, the shopkeeper must sell each of the 10 remaining packs for $3.00/10
=$0.30
four individuals pool money together to start a new business and agree to split the profits equally. N invests $6,000, X invests $2,000, Y invests $8,000 and Z invests $4,000. If the profits for the first month were $100,000, Y receives ______ less than if the profits were divided in proportion to how much they invested correct answer 15,000 Y invests $8,000 out of the total ($6,000 + $2,000 + $8,000 + $4,000 = $20,000). 8,000/20,000 = 8/20 = 4/10 (half both numbers) So Y was responsible for 40% of the investment, If the payout of profits was proportional to the amount invested. Y would get 40% of the profit.
