At a cost of $12 per bushel, and with 48 apples per bushel, then each apple costs Bronson $12/48=$<<12/48=0.25>>0.25
If he sells the apples to the stores at $0.40 per apple, then he makes a profit of $0.40-$0.25=$<<0.4-0.25=0.15>>0.15 per apple.
After selling 100 apples to the store, his profit would be 100*$0.15=$<<100*0.15=15>>15.
