Answer:

$103.71

Explanation:

Take the amount of the dog food cans and multiply it by 7:

7×$1.29=$9.03

Take the new number and multiply it by 4, since we need to figure out how much he spends in 4 weeks:

$9.03×4=$36.12

Now add the cost of the bagged dog food to the cost of the 7 cans throughout the 4 weeks:

$36.12+$67.59=$103.71
