At Fournotts, a retail corporation, Riya saw a box of collector's edition comic books. Each book was priced at $28.50, but a customer who bought five of the books was required to pay only $19.99 for each book. Riya bought one book and her friend bought five books. Fournotts’ revenue from Riya’s and her friend’s combined purchases was _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

$128.45

Explanation:

The computation of the combined purchase is shown below:

= Price paid by Riya + price paid by her friend

Price paid by Riya is $28.50

And, the price paid by her friend equal

= Each book price × number of books

= $19.99 × 5 books
