Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rhode Island Red chicks = 3.20 Dollars

Buckeye chicks = 3.44 Dollars

For every3 times as 3.44 Dollars, The farmer buys 4 times as 3.20 Dollars so simply Multiply until you reach 70 S0..

3.44 x 3

= 10.32

3.20 x 4

= 12.8

With 7 chicks, combine the prices of the chicks and multiply it by 10.

= 12.8 + 10.32

= 23.12

= 23.12 x 10

= 231.2

So 231.2 Dollars were spent for 70 chicks`in total.
