A man purchases 12 apples for Rs 8 and sells 8 apples for Rs 12. How much profit does he make?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IT looks like he made 4 Rs profit and still had 4 apples left to sell. He originally bought 12 apples for 8 Rs. At this point he is down 8 Rs. Then he sold 8 of his 12 apples for 12 Rs. \[12-8=4\]

The equation above gives you the profit the man made. It was 4 Rs (whatever "Rs" are).
