Aset of pencils sells for $1.75 and costs $0.40 to make. twenty percent of the profit ( the difference between the purchase price and the amount it costs to make) from each set of pencils goes to school. if 500 sets are sold, what is the amount of money that will go to the school.

$135

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the profit first.

1.75 x 500 = 875.

$875 is how much money they have. We need to find the total cost it took to make the pencils and then subtract that from the money they have, to find the profit.

0.40 x 500 = 200

so subtract.

875 x 200 = 675.

So they mad $675. To find twenty percent of that, we need 20% as a decimal and multiply it by 675.

0.20 x 675 = 135

$135

Hope this helps! Please mark as brainliest! Thanks!

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
