Ethan's freight forwarding company charges $15 for mirrors delivered on time and $10 for mirrors delivered late. In the month of February, Ethan's freight forwarding company collected $1200. For every 17 mirrors delivered, 14 were delivered on time and 3 were delivered late.

1. What was the total number of mirrors delivered late?
2. How much less money did Ethan's freight forwarding company collect in February due to the late deliveries of the mirrors?

	On time	Late	Total
Number	14 u	3 u
Value	15	10
Total Value	210 u	30 u	240 u

(a)
Total amount collected in February
= 210 u + 30 u
= 240 u

240 u = 1200

1 u = 1200 ÷ 240 = 5

Total number of mirrors delivered late
= 3 u
= 3 x 5
= 15

(b)
Amount that Ethan's freight forwarding company collected less from each late delivery of mirrors
= 15 - 10
= $5

Number of mirrors delivered late
= 3 u 
= 3 x 5
= 15

Amount that Ethan's freight forwarding company collected less from all the late deliveries of mirrors 
= 15 x 5
= $75

Answer(s): (a) 15; (b) $75
