Final answer:
To calculate the total cost for the tomato sauce, multiply the number of cans (3) by the price of each can ($0.67). The student spent $2.01 on tomato sauce.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how much was spent on the tomato sauce, we will multiply the price of one can by the number of cans purchased. This is similar to multiplying the quantity of a fruit with its price per unit to find the total cost, as follows:
To find out how much she spent on tomato sauce, we need to multiply the price of one can by the number of cans she bought. Since one can of tomato sauce is $0.67 and she bought 3 cans, we can multiply $0.67 by 3 to get the total amount spent.
0.67 x 3 = $2.01
10 apples × 50 cents each = $5.00 spent on apples in 2001.
12 bananas × 20 cents each = $2.40 spent on bananas in 2001.
2 bunches of grapes at 65 cents each = $1.30 spent on grapes in 2001.
1 pint of raspberries at $2 each = $2.00 spent on raspberries in 2001.
In the student's case:
3 cans of tomato sauce × $0.67 each = $2.01 spent on tomato sauce.
