    The profit on 5 L moisturizer bottle is $797.25.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The cost of 5 L of moisturizer bottle = $146.50

    The cost of each milliliter jar = $0.40

    Total number of small jars = 125

    ⇒ The total Cost price of 125 jars = 125 x Cost of each jar

    = 125 x $0.40 = $50

    So, the Total Cost Price = Cost of Big Bottle + Cost of small 125 bottles

    = $146.50 + $50 = $196.50

    Now, Selling price of each jar = $7.95

    ⇒ The total Selling price of 125 jars = 125 x Selling price of each jar

    = 125 x $7.95 = $993.75

    Now Profit on 5 L bottle = TOTAL S. P - TOTAL C. P

    = $993.75 - $196.50

    = $797.25

    Hence, the profit on 5 L moisturizer bottle is $797.25.
