Final answer:

To calculate Bree's total sales for April and May, we computed the total sales in April and doubled it for May's sales. Adding the totals for both months, we found that Bree's total sales were $1980.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Bree's total sales for April, first, determine the sales of each item and then sum them up. Next, double that amount to find May's sales and add the totals for April and May to find the overall total.

April's Sales Calculation:

Paintings: 2 × $95 = $190

Stone sculptures: 5 × $64 = $320

Mini-bronze sculpture: 1 × $150 = $150

April's Total Sales = $190 + $320 + $150 = $660

May's Sales:

Since May's sales are double that of April's, May's total sales are 2 × $660 = $1320.

Total Sales for April and May:

Combining both months' sales, we have $660 (April's sales) + $1320 (May's sales) = $1980.

Her sales in April&May were 1,320.
2x95=190
64x5=320
+150
Add those together and you get 660.
Since it’s doubled, multiply 660 by 2 to get 1,320.
Hope this helps! <3
