The profit, P, realized by a company varies directly as the number of products it sells. If a company makes a profit of $7800 on the sale of 325 products, what is the profit when the company sells 5000 products? A.80000
B.100000
C.120000
D.60000​

C) 120,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use fractions.

7800 = x

. 325 5000 What we are going to do is multiply 325 times x and 7800 times 5000 . 7800 times 5000 equals 39,000,000. 325 times x equals 325x. The reason why we put the info this way is because we are trying to find the profit for a certain number of products . If we were trying the number of products we would put 5000 on top and the x on the bottom of the fraction the n croos multiply but this is not the case.

39,000,000 = 325x

325 325

Next, we are going to divide 325 on both sides to get x ( in this case x equals the answer) by itself.

39,000,000 /325 = 120,000

325x / 325 = x

x = 120,000
