Question

No matter how many play it, it costs $6 to bowl each game at Hollywood Bowl. A

pair of shoes can be borrowed for $3. How much does it cost to borrow 5 pairs of
shoes and bowl 2 games?

Answer 1

$27

Explanation:

We need to calculate the cost of the shoes and cost of the games, and sum them up.

Since a pair of shoes can be borrowed for$3, borrowing 5 pairs of shoes will cost 3x5 = 15.

Since bowling a game costs $6, 2 games will cost 6x2 = 12.

The total cost = the cost of the shoes + cost of the games:

→ 15 + 12 = 27
