Question

Ashley baked 3 dozen cupcakes for a bake sale. If she sold all the cupcakea for $.75 each, how much money would she collect?

Answer 1

She would collect $27.

Explanation:

A dozen means that it is a set of twelve items, so in order to find the amount of cupcakes she sold, you have to multiply 12 for the number of dozens she baked which was 3:

12*3=36

Now that you know the number of cupcakes she sold, you have to multiply this for the price of each cupcake:

36*$0.75= $27

According to this, the answer is that she would collect $27.
