Question

I need help on how to do this

Answer 1

8($0.30/1 egg)+5($0.48/1 lb)+1/8($4.16/1 lb)
$2.40+$2.40+$0.52
A) $5.32

Answer 2

8 eggs -------------- eggs cost $0.30 each
5 lb grapefruit------ $0.48 per lb
1/8 lb spinach------$4.16 per lb

if you wanted to calculate the total amount the eggs costs, multiply 8 and 0.30
8*0.30 = $2.40

if you wanted to calculate the total amount the grapefruit costs, multiply weight by price (5 and 0.48)
5*0.48=$2.40

if you wanted to calculate the total amount the spinach costs, again multiply weight by price (1/8 and 4.16)
1/8 * 4.16= $0.52

add up all the individual prices together, will tell you how much Ms. Simon spent.

2.40+2.40+0.52

if you're unable to do multiplication and addition, use a calculator
