My question is: To run his grocery store, Mr. Haj needs $4000 a day. This money is used to pay for orders done, delivery costs and employees' salaries. If he spends 2/5 of the total operation costs on employees' salary and 1/4 of the remaining amount on delivery costs, how much money does he pay for the orders done? Your thoughts:

The total amount of money Mr. Haj used to pay for employee salary is 2 / 5 * $4000 = $1600. After paying the employee salaries, Mr. Haj remains with $4000 - $1600 = $2400. He also uses 1 / 4 * $2400 = $600 on delivery costs. The remaining amount of money that he uses to pay for orders is $2400 - $600 = $1800. The final answer: 1800.
