Expenses for purchasing is $245, Revenue $479 and Total profit $ 234

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of two blouses = 2 * 25 = $50

Revenue from blouses = 2 * 38 = $76

Profit of blouses = 76 - 50 = $26

Similarly cost of 3 skirts = 3*15 = $45

Revenue from Skirts = 3*26 = $78

Profit from skirts = 78-45 = $33

Now cost price of pants = 5*30 = $150

Revenue from Pants = 5*65 = $325

Profit from pants = 325-150 = $175

So Jayla's expenses for purchasing = 50+45+150

= $245

Revenue = 76+78+325

= $479

Total Profit = 479 - 245

= $234
