It is D. Heres what you do. Add all the losses. Then add the profit to the losses and you get 57$

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

Thats how I do problems like that

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

ummmm really?

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

UH yeah, cause do 57$ - 42 and you get 15$

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

You need two! The profit and the lost..

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

Oh well,

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

What?

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

It swear its D but now that I need two I do not know. Sorry dude.

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

Thursday: $19 ->lost Friday: $12 ->lost Saturday: $11 -> lost He also got 15 dollars... so... 19-12-11 equals?

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

42...

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

42-15 = 27

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

IS that right?

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

Yes... Now for the profit..

Arcadiouse (arcadiouse):

Okay so a 27 loss. How would we calculate profit if it just says on sunday what the profit was/

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

@BoyItMatt

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

okay so 42 @Qwertty123

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

OH WAIT it 27

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

lol 27 is your loose... now you need to figure out your profit.

OpenStudy (boyitmatt):

wait so now 27 is the loss so how do you do the profit

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

@imqwerty help this boy! XD

imqwerty (imqwerty):

okay so we need to find the total profit or loss so well 1st we add up all the losses->$19+$12+$11 =$42 2nd we add up all the profits->$15 now clearly loss is more than the profit so hes in loss his overall lost must be this-> sum of all losses-sum of all profits overall loss = $42-$15
