Answer:

Randall earned $33.75 from selling baseball cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost for each pack of card = $3.75

Number of packs = 3

Hence Cost of 3 packs of card can be calculated by multiplying Cost for each pack of card with number of packs

Cost of 3 packs of card = [tex]\$3.75\times3=\$11.25[/tex]

Also Given:

Each pack contains = 12 cards

3 pack contains = number of cards in 3 pack

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of Card in 3 pack = [tex]12\times3=36 cards[/tex]

Hence Purchasing Price of 36 cards = $11.25

Now Given that;

Selling price for each cards = $1.25

Selling price for 36 cards = price for 36 cards

By Using Unitary method we get;

Selling price for 36 cards = [tex]\$1.25\times 36 = \$45[/tex]

Now Money Earned can be calculated by subtracting Purchasing Price with selling price we get;

Total Money earned = [tex]45-11.25 = \$33.75[/tex]

Hence Randall earned $33.75 from selling baseball cards.
