Answer:
The cost of total quantity of candy bought is $578 Â
Step-by-step explanation:
given in question as :
The quantity of candy bought = 5 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = Â [tex]\frac{17}{3}[/tex] lbs
The types of candy bought = 12
So the total number of candy bought = 12 × [tex]\frac{17{3}[/tex] lbs
Or, the total number of candy bought = 68 lbs
∵ 1 lbs = 1 pound
So, 68 lbs = 68 pound
As the price of 1 pound = $8.50
∴ The price of 68 pounds = $ 8.50 × 68 = $578
Hence the cost of total quantity of candy bought is $578 Â Answer
