A Math Puzzle for the Inquisitive Mind: The Cow (Page 2 ) | August 13, 2024
Annonce:
Envision yourself making $1,000 after purchasing a cow for $800. You reinvest $1100 into the cow and make $1300 from its sale a few years later.
The real question is: what was your total income?
Your overall profit, rather than the sum of your individual transactions, is the missing piece to this jigsaw.
This may be determined by deducting the amount you spent on the cow from the amount you made from selling it.
Buying the cow cost a total of $1900 ($800 for the first purchase plus $1100 for the second).
The first sale of the cow brought in $1,000, and the subsequent sale brought in $1,300, for a total of $2,300.
