A man buys a book for $150, he then sells for $160. He bought the same book back for $170, then resells it again for $180.

How much did he gain or lose?

Let's assume this man has $500 in his pocket to start with (note, any amount you assume will work, we are just assuming 500).

So he bought a book for $150: at this point, he has $350 left in his pocket.

he then sells for $160: at this point he has (350+160) = $510

He bought the same book back for $170: now he has (510 - 170) = $340

hen resells it again for $180: now he has (340 + 180) = $520

He started out with $500 and at the end he has $520, that means he has made a gain of $20

Answer: He gained $20

How Does Telegram Make Money?

Telegram is a free app and runs on donations. According to a blog on the telegram: We believe in fast and secure messaging that is also 100% free. Pavel Durov, who shares our vision, supplied Telegram with a generous donation, so we have quite enough money for the time being. If Telegram runs out, we will introduce non-essential paid options to support the infrastructure and finance developer salaries. But making profits will never be an end-goal for Telegram.

The Singapore stock market has alternated between positive and negative finishes through the last five trading days since the end of the two-day winning streak in which it had added more than a dozen points or 0.4 percent. The Straits Times Index now sits just above the 3,060-point plateau and it's likely to see a narrow trading range on Monday.
