Question

10) In preparation for his new job, Luke bought

two suits at $139 a piece, six shirts at $28 a
piece, two pairs of shoes at $67 a piece, four
ties at $26 a piece, and five pairs of socks at $5
a piece. What was the total cost of these items?
B) $684
A) $709
C) $730
D) $265

Answer 1

The correct answer is A) $709.

To find the total cost of these items, we can add up the cost of each item:

2 suits x $139/suit = $278
6 shirts x $28/shirt = $168
2 pairs of shoes x $67/pair = $134
4 ties x $26/tie = $104
5 pairs of socks x $5/pair = $25

Total cost = $278 + $168 + $134 + $104 + $25 = $709

Therefore, the total cost of these items is $709.
