Answer:$2,700

Step-by-step explanation:

You would multiply the dresses and jumpers by their amount sold, for instance 60x20=1,200 the 60 is for the cost of the dresses and 20 is for how many of them sold, and for the jumpers the equation is 50x30=1,500. Now that we have both equations and have found those totals we need to add those totals to find the total amount the shop earned 1,200+1,500=2,700. Therefore the total amount earned is $2,700.

Math for the answer:

60x20=1,200

50x30=1,500

1,200+1,500=2,700

To find the total amount the shop received, we can multiply the cost of each item by the number of items sold and then add the results together.

The cost of a dress is $60 and the shop sold 20 dresses, so the total amount from dress sales is 20 * $60 = $1200.

The cost of a jumper is $50 and the shop sold 30 jumpers, so the total amount from jumper sales is 30 * $50 = $1500.

Now, we can find the total amount the shop received by adding the amounts from dress sales and jumper sales together:

Total amount = $1200 + $1500 = $2700.

Therefore, the total amount the shop received is $2700.
