Answer:
580 is spent on onions and potatoes
Step-by-step explanation:
The grocery store ordered 47 bags of onions, and 1 bag costs 2.
It also ordered 167 bags of potatoes, and the bag costs 3.
47 bags onions X 2 render 94
162 bags potatoes X 3 render 486
94 (cost of onions) + 486 (cost of potatoes) = 580

x = 100
