If I have 60 apples, and I would like to sell 30 in one spot at 3 apples for $1.00 = 3/1.00 and in another spot,the other 30 at 2 apples for $1.00 = 2/1.00. I’d make $10.00 in the first spot and $15.00 in the second one, right? So that would be 25 dollars total earned.

Well, if I just forget about selling in two different spots, and I choose to sell my apples at 5 apples for $2.00 = 5/2.00 , why in the world would I get $24.00?
