For the 6th annual school fundraiser, Daisy needs to sell 38 rolls of

wrapping paper. So far, she has sold 2.24 rolls to her grandmother, 5.75
rolls to her uncle, and .6 rolls to a neighbor. How many more rolls of
wrapping paper does Daisy need to sell? If each roll costs $3.46, how
much money can Daisy make?

Answer:

She needs to sell the rest of her 29.41 rolls of wrapping paper. If she sells all of her rolls of wrapping paper, she'll be able to get a total of $131.48.

Explanation:

To get the answer to "How many more rolls of wrapping paper does Daisy need to sell?" you would have to add up how many she already sold which is

2.24 + 5.75 + 0.6 = 8.59

and then subtract 8.59 from the total of rolls she's supposed to sell.

38 - 8.59 = 29.41

To get $131.48

You multiply how much each roll costs to the total of rolls she's supposed to sell:

38 * 3.46 = 131.48

Hope this helped :)
