1 answer

To calculate the profit, we need to find the difference between the selling price and the buying price, and then multiply it by the number of shares.

Buying price = 1.44 naira
Selling price = 1.565 naira

Profit per share = Selling price - Buying price
= 1.565 - 1.44
= 0.125 naira

Total profit = Profit per share * Number of shares
= 0.125 * 2650
= 331.25 naira

Therefore, the investor's profit, rounded to the nearest naira, is 331 naira.
