Answer 1

For the first question the answer is A- 1, 440. For the second question the answer is C- $3,000.

Explanation:

For question 1 I got 1,440 because 8 x 12 = 96 and 112 x 12 equaled 1344 so when I added those two up I got 1,440.

For question2 I got, $3,000 because 16 x 125 = 2000 + 1000 so the answer to that question is $3000.
