Answer:

1. a) $24, b) $36, c) $48

2. a) $18, b) $27, c) $36

3. a) $1.64, b) $2.46, c) $3.28

5. a) $30, b) $50, c) $70

6. a) $4.05, b) $6.75, c) $10.80

7. a) $14.85, b) $24.75, c) $39.60

Explanations:

Whatever we multiply the item by, we multiply the cost by. If we double the number of socks, we double the price. If we triple the number of socks, we triple the price.

1. a) 3 costs $12, and 3 x 2 = 6, so we do the same to the price: $12 x 2 = $24

b) 3 times 3 is 9, so 3 x 12 gives you that cost, $36

c) 3 x 4 = 12, so 12 x 4 = $48

2. a) 3 pairs is $9, and we need 6 pairs. 3 x 2 = 6, so we also multiply the price x 2 = $18

b) 3 x 3 = 9 pairs, multiply the cost times 3 as well. 9 x 3 = $27

c) 3 x 4 = 12, multiply the cost x 4. 9 x 4 = 36

3. 4 apples cost $0.82

a) 4 x 2 = 8 apples, $0.82 x 2 = $1.64

b) 4 x 3 = 12 apples, $0.82 x 3 = $2.46

c) 4 x 4 = 16 apples, $0.82 x 4 = $3.28

---------------------------------------------

The concept is the same for all the other questions as well. Please comment below if you need a different explanation to understand this. :)

I saw your questions in the comments. Your lesson is probably about unit rates and just use the same technique the person above me did! Its pretty easy tho.

Have a nice day! At least give my answer a thanks.
