Question

A wholesaler receives an order for 8000 pounds of produce. If the cost of shipping is $90 per ton, how much will the wholesaler have to pay for this shipment?

Answer 1

Answer:360

Explanation:

1 ton = 2000 pounds

8000/2000 =4

4x90= 360.00

Answer is 360.00 for shipping

Answer 2

`\huge{\boxed{\$360}}`

Each pound contains
`2000` pounds, so divide
`8000 / 2000` to find the number of tons.
`8000 / 2000=4`

Now, just multiply
`\$90*4=\boxed{\$360}`
