Question

Toby, a toy store buyer, ordered 2 gross rubber spiders, 60 teddy bears, and 5 dozen video games. The spiders cost 7 cents each, the bears cost 59.76 dollars per dozen, and the video games were on sale for a special price—12 for 156 dollars. What was the total cost of Toby's order, in dollars?

Answer 1

spiders - 2 times 7 = 14 cents

teddy bears - 60 divided by 12 = 5

59.76 times 5 = $298.80

video games - 5 times 12 = 60

156 times 5 = $780

$780 + $298.80 + 14 cents = $1078.94

the total cost was $1078.94
