Question

A phone company charged $67 for monthly access and $14 for each gigabyte of data used. If you sign a two-year contract and use 147.5 gigabytes of data, which value is the closest approximation to the total amount you will pay for phone service?

A. $2,700
B. $2,900
C. $3,400
D. $4,400

Answer 1

It’s C - first you multiply 67x24(2years) and then you find the multiplication of 14x147.5(how much gb used by the cost of one gb) and then you add the products of the 2 equations. It should look like this.
(67x24) + (14x147.5) = 3,673
They said an approximation to the total amount and C will be the closest one
