Question

39. Eggs cost 90 cents a dozen. Peppers cost 20 cents each. One omelet consists of 3 eggs & 1/4 of a pepper. How much will the ingredients for 8 omelets cost A. $130 B. $190 C. $210 D. $220 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 Egg costs = 90/12 = 15/6 cents

1/4 of peppers = 20/4 = 5 cents

1 Omlet costs = 3×15/6 + 5

= 45/6 +5

= (45+ 30) / 6

=75/6

= 12.50

Ingredients of 8 omlets will cost = 8 × 12.5 = 100 cents or 1 dollar.
