Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

Broker's usually take a percentage of the money made or a fixed amount no matter how much is traded.

Here, the broker charges $10 per trade. So, it doesn't matter how much you do trade, the broker will charge $10 PER TRANSACTION.

Samantha bought stocks worth 2500 (1 transaction)

Samantha sold these again for 2750 (1 transaction).

So there were 2 trades made by Samantha.

So broker would charge $10 + $10 = $20

Answer:

$20 is the broker's fee
