Answer: the total amount that Luis spent for the concert ticket, hotel, and dinner is $106.75

Explanation:

Luis purchased a concert ticket for $17.50. The cost of his hotel was

4 1/2 times as much as his ticket. It means that the cost of his ticket was

4.5 × 17.5 = $78.75

His dinner was 3/5 the cost of his ticket. It means that the cost of his dinner was

3/5 × 17.5 = $10.5

Therefore, the total amount that Luis spent for the concert ticket, hotel, and dinner is

17.5 + 78.75 + 10.5 = $106.75
