Answer 1

Answer:

$187.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Melissa and Angie baked 15 pies.

Each pie was cut into 6 slices.

Total Number of Slices = 15 X 6 =90

The Selling Price of a piece of pie = $2.25

Therefore, their total selling price = 90 X $2.25 =$202.5

For all the pies, their ingredients cost $15.24.

Therefore, the Profit made = Total Income - Expenses

                                         = Total selling price - Ingredients cost

                                         =202.5 - 15.24

                             Profit    =$187.26

Melissa and Angie made a profit of $187.26
