Solutions

Question 1
To buy two dozens of eggs, we need to multiply the cost of a dozen eggs by 2, which gives us $3.60. To buy 3 pounds of bacon, we multiply the cost of a pound of bacon by 3, giving us $13.50. Adding these two amounts, we get $17.10. Therefore, it would cost $17.10 to buy two dozens of eggs and 3 pounds of bacon.

Question 2
To find the difference in price between the two drinks, we need to subtract the cost of one bottle of soda from the cost of one bottle of lemonade. 2.00 - 1.50 = 0.50. Therefore, the difference in price between the two drinks is $0.50.

Question 3
To find the cost of one gallon of milk, divide the total cost by the number of gallons. $12.75 ÷ 3 gallons = $4.25 per gallon.

Question 4
To find the difference in price between the two bags, we simply subtract the price of the apples from the price of the oranges. $4.50 - $3.00 = $1.50. Therefore, the bag of oranges is $1.50 more expensive than the bag of apples.

Question 5
To find the cost of 3 pounds of coffee, we need to multiply the cost of one pound of coffee by 3. 9.45 x 3 = 28.35. Therefore, 3 pounds of coffee costs $28.35.

Question 6
To calculate the dealership's total cost for the cars, we need to multiply the price of each car by the number of cars. 12 cars multiplied by $25,000 per car equals $300,000 in total cost for the cars.

Question 7
To find the total cost, multiply the cost of each item by the number of that item being purchased, then add the resulting products together. 2 packs of pencils × $1.50 per pack + 3 notebooks × $2.75 per notebook = $3 + $8.25 = $11.25.

Question 8
To find the difference in price between the two stationery items, we simply subtract the price of the pencils from the price of the pens. $2.40 - $1.20 = $1.20. Therefore, the difference in price between the two items is $1.20.

Question 9
To split the 20 marbles evenly among Tim and his 4 friends, we can divide 20 by 5. The result is 4, so each person will get 4 marbles.

Question 10
If 5 shirts cost $35, then 1 shirt would cost $7. Adding the cost of a tie, which is $10, we get $17 for one shirt with a tie.

Question 11
To find the amount saved, we need to first calculate how much it would cost to buy five tickets individually. To buy one ticket costs $10, so five tickets would cost $50. However, buying five tickets together costs $48.75. To find the amount saved, we subtract the cost of buying five tickets together from the cost of buying five tickets individually: $50 - $48.75 = $1.25. Therefore, you can save $1.25 by buying five tickets at the same time.

Question 12
Julio needs to save $45.75 - $20.75 = $25 for the game. In 5 days, he needs to save $25, so he should save $25 / 5 = $5 per day.

Question 13
To find the total amount of money Michael raised, simply multiply the number of tickets he sold by the price of each ticket. In this case, Michael sold 10 tickets at $2.50 per ticket, so he raised $25 for his organization.

Question 14
To find the total cost of 6 packs of gum, we need to multiply the cost of one pack by 6. $0.50 x 6 = $3. Therefore, it would cost $3 to buy 6 packs of gum.

Question 15
Step 1: To find the cost of 4 cupcakes, we need to multiply the cost of one cupcake by 4. Step 2: Here, the cost of one cupcake is $3.60. Step 3: Therefore, the cost of 4 cupcakes is $3.60 x 4 = $14.4.

Question 16
To determine how much money Alex raised, we need to multiply the number of tickets he sold by the price of each ticket. Alex was given 18 tickets, and he sold them all, so he sold 18 tickets. Each ticket costs $3, so he raised 18 * 3 = $54. Therefore, Alex raised $54 for his club.

Question 17
To find the difference in price between the two types of milk, we need to subtract the cost of one carton of milk from the cost of one carton of coconut milk. $3.50 - $2.00 = $1.50. Therefore, the difference in price between the two types of milk is $1.50.

Question 18
To find the cost of each box of cheese, we need to divide the total cost of 5 boxes ($7.00) by the number of boxes (5). $7.00 ÷ 5 = $1.40 or 1.4. Therefore, each box of cheese costs $1.40.

Question 19
Linda spent $9 on 3 loaves of bread, so each loaf costs $9 / 3 = $3.

Question 20
To find the difference in price between the two drinks, we need to subtract the cost of one bottle of soda from the cost of one bottle of lemonade. 2.00 - 1.50 = 0.50. Therefore, the difference in price between the two drinks is $0.50.
