Question

Todd helps his dad with his landscaping business during the summer. He earns $10 for each shrub he plants and $25 for each lawn he mows. If Todd planted 194 shrubs and mowed 62 lawns, how much money did Todd earn?

Answer 1

Todd earned: $3490

Explanation:

First you have to times 10 ($ per shrub) by 194 (# of shrubs planted) and 25 ($ per lawn) by 62 (# of lawns mowed)

10 * 194 = 1940

25 * 62 = 1550

Then you have to add the two together to get the total amount of money he earned.

10 * 194 + 25 * 62 = 3490
