    Answer: Ksh 6144

    Step-by-step explanation:

    On Thursday, a fruit vendor bought 1948 oranges on a Thursday and sold 750. The number of oranges left will be: = 1948 – 750 = 1198

    On n Friday, he sold 240 more oranges than on Thursday. This means the number of oranges sold is: = 240 + 750 = 990.

    The number for f oranges left will then be: = 1198 – 990 = 208

    On Saturday, he bought 560 more

    oranges, the total oranges that the vendor has now will be:

    = 208 + 560 = 768

    Since sold all the oranges he had at a price of Ksh. 8 each, the amount if money made will be:

    = Ksh 8 × 768

    = Ksh 6144

    The vendor made Ksh 6144
