Question

Sharon bought 6 new folders for $1.15 each and 15 pens that were priced at 5 for $4.75. What is the total amount she spent?

Answer 1

Answer:

$21.15

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x 1.15 = 6.9 (because we're working with money, we'll add a zero at the end for the ones place) = 6.90

15/5 = 3 then 3 x 4.75= 14.25

14.25 + 6.90 = 21.15

Hope this helped <3

Answer 2

Answer:

$21.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Folder Amount: $1.15 • 6 = $6.90

Total Pen Amount: $4.75 • 3* = $14.25

*She bought 15 pens. The pens were 5 pens for $4.75. 15÷5=3*

$14.25 + $6.90 = $21.15
