Your assignment submission will be assessed through Turnitin. Assignments submitted with 50% or more on similarity index (orange or red colour) will not be marked. Note that Turnitin works in the assignment folder, and there is where you should submit your assignment. Do not submit your assignment somewhere else, because if you submit your assignment in another folder from another unit the document 2 will be stored in Turnitin memory, and I will receive a notice of 100% plagiarism.

Throughout the two days, the four friends were able to sell 2,000 barbecues and 1,000 balloons. The four friends did not have to bother about the stock of sausage and bread or balloons. They made arrangements with a supplier and had to pay only $0.20 per barbecue served (a bread and a sausage) and $0.05 for each balloon. For
