Question

A choir needs new robes for each of its 46 singers. Each robe costs 32$. What will be the total cost for all 46 robes

Answer 1

$1472

Explanation:

We have given a price of a robe and it is $32. And we have to find the total price of 46 such kind of robes.

The question is a direct ratio problem since the price will increase correspondingly with the price of robes.

The correct scheme will be:

1 robe____________$32

46 robes__________x

`x=(46*32)/(1) =1472`
