Harry made $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First 155 minus 15 rotten oranges is 140 oranges. Then, you do 140 divided by 7 to find the number of sales he made. 140 divide by 7 equals 20 which is the number of sales. Then 20 times 2 equals $40. Since he spent $35 to buy the oranges at first, you do 40 minus 35 which equals 5. He made $5 profit.
