Question

publishes a catalog each year, last year it had 198 pages back and front. We print 150 copies. How much does it cost the college if a ream, 500 sheets of paper, cost $7.40 each?

Answer 1

Answer: $219.78

Explanation:

One sheet is two pages, so 198/2= 99.

Now, we multiply 99 by 150 to see how many sheets were printed.

99 times 150 = 14850

Now, we can divide 14850 by 500 to see our price.

14850/500 = 29.7

29.7 times 7.40 = 219.78

The answer is 219.78
