Aman bough a dozen boxes, wach with 24 highlighter pens inside, for $8.00 each box. he repacked five of these boxes into packages of six highlighters each and sold them for $3.00 per package. he sold the rest of the highlighters separately at the rate of three pens for $2.00. how much profit did he make?

A dozen boxes is 12 boxes, with 24 pens inside. So, the man had a total of 288 highlighters pens to start with. he then repackaged 5 boxes times six highlighters =30 highlighters taken from original 288. He sold for $3.00 times 5 boxes =15$ He originally spent $96 to purchase his highlighters. So 288-30 =258pens left after repackaged boxes..   258 divided by 3=86. 86 times 2$=172$ So 172$ plus $15= 187 $. Subtract $96 spent from $187 resale value, and you get a profit of 91$
