Question

a catering service is running a special on a shrimp appetizer—one dozen appetizers for $33.95. so far, theyve sold 4 dozen to customer a, 6 dozen to customer b, and 8 dozen to customer c. how much should they collect altogether for the three sales? select one of four $467.36 $523.84 $580.42 $611.10 remaining attempts: 1

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total dozens sold

First, find the total number of dozens sold by adding the dozens sold to each customer. So, \(4 + 6 + 8 = 18\) dozens.

Step2: Calculate total amount

Each dozen costs \(\$33.95\), so to find the total amount, multiply the total number of dozens by the cost per dozen. That is, \(18\times33.95\). Let's calculate that: \(18\times33.95 = (20 - 2)\times33.95 = 20\times33.95 - 2\times33.95 = 679 - 67.9 = 611.1\). So the total amount is \(\$611.10\).

Answer:

\(\$611.10\) (the option with this amount)
