Question

Kevin’s grandfather left him 100 shares of Apple Inc. and 40 shares of Ford Motor Company. How much is his stock worth, assuming Apple sells for $536 a share and Ford sells for $9.85 a share?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem statement, we can create the following equation:

$T = 100A + 40F$

Where $T$ is the total worth of all shares, $A$ is the price of an Apple share, and $F$ is the price of a Ford share.

Plugging in the numbers from the problem statement, we get the following:

$T = 100(536) + 40(9.85)$

Multiplying these numbers out and adding them together will give you your answer.
