Question

Creamy Brand ice cream costs $5.50 per gallon, How much would it cost you to buy 2.25 gallons of ice cream for a party if the total tax on your order is $0.72?

Answer 1

$13.00

Explanation:

so you multiply $5.50 by 2.25 gallons

5.50

x 2.25 =

2750+1100+1100= 12.3750

then you round it off which will make your answer $12.38

then to find out how much it will be with the taxes you add $12.38 and .072 to it to make the total for the ice cream $13.00
