Answer 1

Correct Question :- Zaerai sold a dozen folders for $5.00 each and 8 pens for $0.45 each. What were her total sales ?

Solution :-

we have,

→ SP of 1 folder = $5. 00

so,

→ SP of a dozen folders = 12 * 5 = $60.00 .

similarly,

→ SP of 1 pen = $0.45

so,

→ SP of 8 pens = 8 * 0.45 = $3.60

then,

→ Total sales = SP of a dozen folders + SP of 8 pens = 60.00 + 3.60 = $63.60 (Ans.)
