+151 Mr. Anderson purchased 1 1/3 pounds of frozen peas, 3/8 pound of frozen corn, 2 1/2 pounds of frozen broccoli, and 1 4/5 pounds of frozen carrots. The vegetables were all on special for $0.99 per pound. What was the total cost of the vegetables?
+313 The total cost of vegetables is calculated as follows:
Given:
Pounds of frozen peas = 1.33
Pound of frozen corn = 0.375
Pounds of frozen broccoli = 2.5
Pounds of frozen carrots = 0.8
Cost per pound = $0.99
Solution:
Total cost = (Pounds of frozen peas + Pound of frozen corn + Pounds of frozen broccoli + Pounds of frozen carrots) * Cost per pound
Total cost = (1.33 + 0.375 + 2.5 + 0.8) * $0.99
Total cost = 5.01 * $0.99
Total cost = $4.96
