    Let b = profit from bolts

    Let n = profit from nuts

    b + n = total profit

    The profit from nuts is $3428 more than the profit from bolts, so we have

    n = b + 3428

    b + n = 76378

    b + b + 3428 = 76378

    2b + 3428 = 76378

    2b = 72950

    b = 36475

    n = b + 3428 = 36475 + 3428 = 39903

    The profit from nuts is $39903.

    The profit from bolts is $36475.
