Question

Jellybeans cost $0.80 per pound. Howard buys 412 pounds of jellybeans for himself and 1 pound for his friend. What is the total cost of the jellybeans Howard buys?

(A.) $4.00

(B.) $4.40

(C.) $4.50

(D.) $4.60

​

Answer 1

412 pounds for him + 1 pound for his friend = 413 total pounds x $0.80 per pound = $330.40

Sorry, I don’t see this as an answer choice.

Answer 2

I am assuming you meant to say '4' instead of '412'. In which case the answer is A.

Explanation:

4 + 1 x .80 is 4.00 even. Good luck in your endeavors!
