Question

Elias bought 7 new shirts for school.

Five shirts cost $60.90. He also bought
a pair of pants for $14.99. Without tax,
what is the total amount Elias spent?

Answer 1

$100.25

Explanation:

This question says that 5 shirts cost $60.90, so you would divide the two numbers to find out the price of 1 shirt

$60.90÷5=$12.18

Then you would just solve this equation

T=$12.18x+$14.99

T= Total Money Spent

x= Number of Shirts

Plug in the 7 shirts and solve

T=$12.18(7)+$14.99

T=$85.26+$14.99

T=$100.25
