How much does an ice cream cost with 11 ounces of toppings? If they charge $3.00 for an ice cream, plus 50 cents per ounce of toppings?

The answer would be $8.50.

The base charge is $3.00 and that includes no toppings. You then have to pay $0.50 per ounce of toppings, and you want 11 ounces of toppings on your ice cream.

0.50x11 = 5.50
3.00+5.50 = 8.50

Answer:

$8.50

Explanation:

multiply 0.50 by 11 to get 5.5 and then add the 3 dollars from the ice cream to get 8.5 - make sure to change 8.5 to $8.50
