Question

A bookstore is having a sale in which you can get 4 notebooks for $7.00 and 10 folders for 2.50. How much will it cost Rico to buy 5 notebooks and 6 folders

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, you divide the money by how many notebooks/folders you can get.

Folders: $2.50 / 10 = $0.25

Notebook: $7.00 / 4 = $1.75

Now, you just multiply the notebooks and folders.

6 folders x $0.25 = $1.50

5 notebooks x $1.75 = $8.75

$1.50 + $8.75 = $10.25

Answer: $10.25
