What is there to convert? This is not a math problem; it's a Spanish question involving the correct conjugation of a verb within a complete sentence.

Las dos camisetas cuestan 155 pesos.

Answer:

This is a Spanish question involving grammar, so we have two elements that cost a certain price each:

  • La camiseta roja (The red T-shirt) costs 55 pesos
  • La camisa negra (The black T-shirt) costs 100 pesos

So the answer would be:

Las dos camisetas cuestan 155 pesos

Since dos camisetas is a plural form, we must conjugate the verb costar matching the third person plural, which is cuestan.
