Question

Braxton was holding a bake sale to raise money for his field trip. He sold cookies for $2 each, muffins for $3 each, and lemonade for $2 a bottle. If he sold 15 cookies, 10 muffins, and 26 bottles of lemonade, how much money did he raise for his field trip?

$126

$112

$134

Answer 1

(2x15)+(3x10)+(2x26)
=112

Therefore he raised $112 for his field trip.

Answer 2

$2(15) + $3(10) + $2(26) = $30 + $30 + $52

= $112
