During a sale 36 similar handbags are sold for a total of $1,620. before the sale, the same number of handbags were sold at $49 each. what is the difference between the amount if money before and after the sale?

Hey there!

Here are the steps involved in answering this question:

1. We know that 36 handbags were sold for $1620 during the sale. 

2. We want to know how much money they earned by selling 36 handbags for 49 dollars each. 

Steps:

1. Since 36 handbags were also sold before the sale, multiply 49 by 36.

36 x 49 = 1764

They earned $1764 before the sale. 

Now, find the difference between each of the sales.

1764 - 1620 = 144

$144
