For tis problem we have that Dave sold 14.84 pounds of cookies and Theo sold 21.45 pounds of cookies.

If we want to find the total of pounds that they sold together we just need to add the two values and we have:


14.84+21.45=36.29\text{pounds}

The reason is because 0.84+0.45=1.29

14+21=35. And finally 35+1.29=36.29

And the best answer for this case would be D. 36.29
