A company reported that it made a profit of 8% as a percentage of sales and that its sales revenue was $25,000. How much profit did the company make?

25,000 * 0.08 = ?

2000

To find the profit made by the company, we can multiply the sales revenue by the profit margin percentage.

The profit margin percentage is given as 8%. To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide it by 100. So the profit margin percentage as a decimal is 8% divided by 100, which is 0.08.

We can then multiply the sales revenue by the profit margin percentage to find the profit:

Profit = Sales revenue * Profit margin percentage
Profit = $25,000 * 0.08
Profit = $2,000

Therefore, the company made a profit of $2,000.
