a 2.5 x 10^-7
b 2.5 x 10^7
c 2.5 x 10^6
d 2.5 x 10^5
To find the corporation's total profit during this time period, we need to multiply the profit per day by the number of days.
Profit per day = $2.5 x 10^4
Number of days = 1 x 10^3
Multiplying these two values, we get:
Total profit = ($2.5 x 10^4) x (1 x 10^3)
= $2.5 x 10^(4 + 3)
= $2.5 x 10^7
Therefore, the corporation's total profit during this time period is 2.5 x 10^7. The answer is option b.
