Question

At the farmers market, Nathaniel buys two dozen oranges at $3.50 per dozen, four kilograms of apples at $3.25 per kilogram, two kilograms of carrots at $1.90 per kilogram, and one kilogram of potatoes for $1.20. He received a 5% discount off his total bill. How much money did Nathaniel spend on fruits and vegetables at the farmers market?

Answer 1

oranges
2(3.50) = 7.00
apples
4(3.25) = 13.00
carrots
2(1.90) = 3.80
potatoes
1(1.20) = 1.20
7 + 13 + 3.80 + 1.20 = 25.00 * .05 = 1.25
$25.00 - 1.25 = $23.75
