The manager of the Craft Shoppe bought some rug kits for $16 each, sold all but 6 of them for $22 each, and made a total profit of $168. How many kits were originally bought? please show/explain your work. thank you! =D

1. It depends on the accounting method, but if you only charge the cost when the item is sold, the answer is (total profit / (unit sale price - unit cost))+ leftover units (168 / (22 - 16 ))+6 I'm sure you can take it from there.
2. His profit- $22- $16= $6 so he makes $6 profit for every kit $168 / 6= 28 so he sold 28 kits at $6 profit per piece so that makes his $168 profit Now it's just 28 kits sold+ 6 kits leftover= 34 He bought 34 kits originally Sorry I edited it
