Answer:
The profit is $100.56
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost for the ice cream was 100 * 2.40 = 240
14 1/2 gallons were ruined so there were 100 -14 = 86 half gallons left
They sold these at 3.96 each
86 * 3.96 =340.56
The profit is the money made minus the cost
340.56-240 = 100.56
The profit is $100.56
