A store sellers apples for $0.60 each and oranges for $0.40 each. how much would it cost to buy 3 apples and 5 oranges

Answer 1

$3.80

to find the total cost

multiply the quantity of apples (3) and oranges (5) by their unit cost , that is the cost of one , and sum the two.

cost = (3 × $0.60) + (5 × $0.40)

= $1.80 + $2.00

= $3.80
