Question

To make a fruit salad for a party, Chris

bought 3 pounds of strawberries
at $2.49 per pound, 2 pounds of
blueberries at $3.19 per pound, and
4 pounds of pineapple at $4.99 per
pound. There is no sales tax on food
where he lives. What is the total
amount Chris spent for the fruit?

Answer 1

$33.81

Explanation:

2.49*3 = 7.47 dollars for 3 pounds of strawberries

3.19*2 = 6.38 dollars for 2 pounds of blueberries

4.99*4 = 19.96 dollars for 4 pounds of pineapple

7.47 + 6.38 + 19.96 = 33.81 dollars spent in total
