1 A middle school is having a fundraiser Edwin wants to buy two candles for 595 eachthree cans of candy for 250 each and an ornament for 795What is the total co class=

Respuesta :

Candles= $5.95 each

Cans of candy = $2.50 each

Ornament = $7.95 each

Number of candles = 2

Number of cans of candy= 3

Number of ornaments=1

The total cost of the candles is equal to the price of each candle ($5.95) multiplied by the number of candles (2)

Total cost of candles = 5.95 x 2= $11.9

Same process for the cans of candy and ornaments:

Total cost of candy = 2.50 x 3 = $7.5

Total cost of ornament = 7.95 x 1 = $7.95

To determine how much money he will need, we simply add all the total costs:

Total cost of candles+ total cost of candy+ total cost of ornaments= 11.9+7.5+7.95 = $27.35

$25 won't be enough to pay for the purchases because it's less than $27.35
