After collecting all the old electronics in their house, Lauryn made $2000 from selling the items on eBay. If her friend Aurelia also made 70% of what she sold on eBay after selling her used electronics, calculate the total amount of money the two friends made on eBay.
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
If Lauryn made $2000 from eBay, then her friend made 70 / 100 * $2000 = $1400. In total, the two friends made $2000 + $1400 = $3400.
Thus, the answer is 3400.
