Question

Jordyn cooks 14 different kinds of doughnuts. She made 3 dozen of each kind. She sells doughnuts for $0.65 each. If she sells all of her doughnuts, how much will she make?

a. $27.30
b. $36.40
c. $45.50
d. $54.60

Answer 1

By calculating 14 kinds of doughnuts times 3 dozen each kind, and then multiplying by the selling price of $0.65, Jordyn will make a total of $327.60 from selling all her doughnuts. The choices provided in the question do not include this correct total, suggesting an error in the question or provided options.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the total amount Jordyn will make from selling her doughnuts, we need to multiply the number of doughnuts she makes by the price per doughnut. Jordyn cooks 14 different kinds of doughnuts and makes 3 dozen (or 36) of each kind. With 14 kinds of doughnuts at 3 dozen each, Jordyn has 14 x 36 doughnuts. Selling each doughnut for $0.65 means we will multiply the total number of doughnuts by $0.65 to find out how much revenue Jordyn will generate.

Let's do the math step by step:

1. Calculate the total number of doughnuts: 14 kinds x 3 dozen each = 14 x 36 = 504 doughnuts.
2. Calculate total earnings: 504 doughnuts x $0.65 per doughnut = $327.60.

Therefore, if Jordyn sells all of her doughnuts, she will make $327.60, which is not one of the provided options, indicating there may be an error in the choices given or in the computation done previously.
