Question

Colton and his dad bought a gallon of paint that cost $13. They also bought 2 brushes that cost $9 each. What was the total cost, not including tax, of the brushes and the paint they bought?

You add up the cost of everything they bough
so $13 + 2($9) since they bought 2 brushes
$13+$18=$31
They paid $31 for the paint and 2 brushes
