Answer 1

By multiplying the number of copies by the number of pages for each type of print and adding them together, we determine that the printing center printed a total of 66,195 pages in one week. None of the provided answer options match this calculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the total number of pages printed by a printing center in one week. The printing center made 1,222 copies of a 45-page article and 747 copies of a 15-page essay. To find the total number of pages printed, we will perform the following calculations:

• First, we multiply the number of copies of the 45-page article by the number of pages per article: 1,222 copies × 45 pages per copy = 54,990 pages.
• Next, we multiply the number of copies of the 15-page essay by the number of pages per essay: 747 copies × 15 pages per copy = 11,205 pages.
• Then, we add the total pages from the articles and the essays to get the overall total: 54,990 pages + 11,205 pages = 66,195 pages.

Therefore, the total number of pages printed by the printing center during the week is 66,195 pages. The correct answer is none of the provided options (A through D), which suggests there might be a typo or mistake in the question or the answer options.
