A market stall sells bread for £1 a loaf and cookies for 60p each. Yesterday 1000 loaves of bread and 2000 cookies were sold. What was the market stall's revenue?

Respuesta :

Answer: £2200

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a market stall sells bread for £1 a loaf and cookies for 60p each and that 1000 loaves of bread and 2000 cookies were sold.

The market stall's revenue would be:

= 1000(£1) + 2000(60p)

= £1000 + 120000p

= £1000 + (120000/100)

= £1000 + £1200

= £2200

The revenue is £2200

Note that 100 pence = 1 pound
