Question

A videographer earns $485 for every wedding he records and $18 for every extra copy of the video his costumers order . How much money does the videographer earn in a summer during which he records 34 videos and has 87 orders for extra copies? Show your work.

Answer 1

All you have to do is start by multiplying 485 and 34 (485*34) to find how much he made by just weddings. That should be equal to 16,490. Then you have to multiply 18 by 87 because he charged 18 per copy and there was 87 copies so (18*87). This should now be equal to 1,566. Since you want the total you now should add them which should be 16,490+1,566 and that is equal to 18,056.
