Natasha pays £200 for 150 magazines

She sells 3/5 of them for £2 each

She sells the rest of the magazines for £1 each

How much money does she receive from selling the magazines?

150 : 5 = 30

30 = 1/5

30 x 3 = 90; 90 = 3/5

90 x 2 pounds = 180 pounds

150 - 90 = 60

60 x 1 pound = 60 pounds

add 180 to 60 and you get 240 pounds

So, Natasha receives 240 pounds

Given:

Number of magazines : 150 pcs

cost of magazines : 200

3/5 x 150 pcs = 90 pcs x 2 = 180
