Answer:

Since, Ahmed wants to sell the pack for a 40% profit, he will need to have a total cost of what he paid (100% of 5) plus the desired profit (40% of $5). Therefore, we can write:

Selling cost=(1.40)5

Selling cost=$7

Therefore, he must sell the pack for $7 in order to make a 40% profit.

Answer:

$0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

5÷20=0.25
one drink costs $0.25
40% of 0.25 = 0.1

40/100 × 0.25 = 0.1
$0.25 + 0.1 =  0.35
