Question

Last winter, Tom earned $47.50 shoveling snow and $122 giving ice-skating lessons. During the summer, he earned twice as much by doing yard work. Which expression shows how you could calculate the amount of money Tom earned during the summer?

Answer 1

You would have to add 47.50 + 122 to get 169.5 dollars. to get the amount of money he made in the summer, you would have to multiply 169.5 by 2 which would equal 339 dollars. so he made 339 dollars over the summer :)
