Question

Jim is mailing packages. Each small package costs him $3.20 to send. Each large costs him $4.70. How much will it cost him to send 1 small package and 4 large packages?

Answer 1

$3.20 for the small and $4.70 for the large packages.

Explanation:

multiply 3.20 by 1 since that is the price of mailing a small package and you want to mail 1.

multiply 4.70 by 4 since that is the price of a large one and you want to mail 4.

3.20 x 1 =3.20

4.70 x 4=18.80
