Leila and Joe are two partners in a business. Leila makes $7 in profits for every $8 that Jo makes. If Jo makes $64 profit on the first item they sell, how much profit does Leila make?
since joe makes 8 dollars per sale and he made 64 in total then we can do 64÷8 which is 8 so we know that they had 8 sales so now we can do 7 · 8 to get 56
