Answer: $38

Explanation:

1. Multiply the cost of mailing a small package ($3.20) by the number of small packages he’s sending (6). Which is $19.20

2. Do the same thing as step one except for large packages instead of small. (4.70×4=18.80)

3. Now add the two $19.20 and $18.80 to get the answer $38

Im using multiplication for this :p

Since small packages cost him $3.20 to send, and he has to sell 6 of them, i did the equation:


3.20 * 6 = 19.20

Now he has to send 4 large packages, each the price of $4.70. The equation:


4.70 * 4 = 18.80

If you want to add them both:


18.80 + 19.20 = $38

youre welcome :p
