Answer 1

Hello!
In this math equation we need to multiply values together and add the grand total.

So pears are $0.92 and Mr. Bonilla bought 3.75 pounds, therefore we need to multiply 0.92 x 3.75 .
After you multiply those you should get 3.45 which is $3.45.

Next you do the same thing with apples . Multiply 2.1 x 1.10 which equals $2.31

Lastly we add 3.45 + 2.31 which equals $5.76 and that’s the total cost
