As each shipment has 98 balls, to determine the total cost of playground balls in three shipments, you have to multiply 98 for 3. Then, after determine the amount of balls in the three shipments, you have to multiply that for the price of each ball:
Total amount= 98*3= 294
Total cost= 294*$2= $588
The total cost of playground balls in three shipments is $588.
