Alrighty, what I was always taught was to start by writing out what you know from the question.
What I know:
-Tom is paid $0.23 for every page of proofs.
-He proofreads 1,992 pages.
In order to figure out how much money Tom has made, we need to multiply 0.23 by 1,992. Multiplying allows us to see the total amount of money made by proofreading x amount of pages - for every page he proofreads, he makes $0.23.
0.23×1992=458.16
Therefore, Tom made $458.16.
Hope this helps!
a = 2t+32=c
b= 2*10=20+32=52oz of coffee
I think this is right
