Answer:
$1,030, 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Aman spent $25,750 on a computer and accessory packs (totally worth it). He sold it for $26,780. So let's say Aman is at 0 before he bought this. He spent $25,750, so we subtract that from 0 to get -25,750. Then he sells it all for $26,780 (again totally worth it for the person buying). So we add 26,780 to the total.
-25,750 + 26,780 = 1,030
So Aman made a profit of $1,030 (now he can buy a REASONABLY priced MacBook Air or something)
So to find the percentage that he gained, we divide 1,030 by his original spending price, namely 25,750
1,030/25,750 = 0.04
Convert that to percentage form, you get 4%
Also, it's questions like this that make me question whether the people who write these questions into the textbooks should be talked to lol.
