Such a problem is usually called a profit and loss problem. Knowledge background The profit and loss issues had been recorded in ancient Chinese mathematics masterpiece nine chapters of arithmetic in the sixth chapter, the lack of profit, profit, is more than losing, is lack of meaning. Typical profit and loss problems are generally expressed in the following form: A number of apples (unknown) to a number of individuals (unknown), if each person is divided into 2, there are more than 20, if each person is divided into 3, less 5. How many people are there in all? How many apples are there? The title of the invariants is the number of people and the number of apples, compared to two different methods of distribution, you know, apple difference: 20 + 5 = 25 (a); the difference between the 25 apples, there is no doubt because everyone is Apples 3 - 2 = 1 (a) made of, As a matter of fact, the only thing that will lead to the situation is that 25 people share apples! The number, which can be obtained according to the problem, the number of apple with two methods: 2 x 2520 = 70 (a) or 3 * 255 = 70 (a). Formula for solving the problem of profit and loss: The number of X (+ = deficit surplus amount)? The two distribution of = (+ n) / (a - b) Remarks: formula number (x) = allocation number (a) * number of persons (y) + deficit (m) and Number of objects (x) = allocation number (b) * number of persons (y) + earnings (n) Key and difficult points Some application problems appear to be not profit and loss problems on the surface, but after careful analysis and proper transformation of conditions, they can be answered as profit and loss problems.
