2. There are 60 boys in the boy scout troop. They each need
shorts and a new shirt. If the shorts cost 20$ each and the shirts cost 15$ each, how
much will the boys have to pay all together?
Explain how you solved the problem.

Respuesta :

The boys will pay $2100 all together

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total boys = 60

Cost of Shorts = $20

Cost of Shirt = $15

As each boy has to buy a shorts and a shirt, so there will be 60 shirts and 60 shorts bought.

Multiplying the cost of one shorts with number of boys will give us the total price of shorts for 60 boys

Cost of shorts for 60 boys = [tex]20*60 = 1200\ dollars\\[/tex]

Multiplying the cost of one shirt with the number of boys will give us the total cost for 60 shirts

Cost of shirts for 60 boys = [tex]15*60 = 900\ dollars[/tex]

So,

[tex]Total\ cost\ paid\ by\ boys = Cost\ of\ shirts + Cost\ of\ shorts\\= 900+1200\\=2100[/tex]

Hence,

The boys will pay $2100 all together
