<human>:  Bronson is an apple dealer. He buys apples from farmers and then transports them to the grocery stores and sells them for profit. He buys individual apples from farmers at a cost of $12 per bushel, and sells them to the stores at a price of $0.40 per apple. If each bushel contains 48 apples, then how much profit, in dollars, does he make after selling 100 apples?
<bot>: How much does each apple cost? ** 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
How much profit does he make after selling 100 apples? ** 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.
How much profit does he make after selling 100 apples? ** After selling 100 apples to the store, his profit would be 100*$0.15=$<<100*0.15=15>>15.
