Question

Grace is trying to read a story many books as she can this summer. Her father promised to give her a quarter for every book she reads she has read 17 books if she reads 25 more how much will her father owe her.

Answer 1

Well, first you add together the total amount of books she has read.
25+17=42.
Then you times 42 by $0.25.
42 x $0.25= $10.50

Her father will owe her $10.50 if she reads 42 books.

Hope this helped! :)

Answer 2

Her father will owe her $10.50 because you have to multiply .25 (The amount of a quarter) and 17 which will give you $4.25. Once you do that you have to multiply .25 and 25 to give you $6.25 and when you add those together you get $10.50
