Question: Mrs. Oaklyn buys handmade rugs at $40 each and sells them at $60 each. If she bought 20 rugs, calculate the profit she will make from selling the rugs.
Answer: Since she buys one rug at $40 and sells it at $60, she makes a profit of $60 - $40 = $20. If she bought 20 rugs at $40 and sold them at $60 each, she made a profit of 20 * $20 = $400. The answer is 400.
