Students make 84.5 ounces of liquid soap for a craft fair they put the soap in 6.5 ounce bottles and sell each bottle for $5.50. How much do students earn if they sell all the bottles of liquid soap explain

Respuesta :

Total amount of liquid soap prepared by the students for a craft fair = 84.5 ounces

Weight of each bottle in which students poured the soap = 6.5 ounces

Let us first calculate the number of bottles, each contains 6.5 ounces of soap from 84.5 ounces of soap.

So, Number of bottles = [tex]84.5 \div 6.5[/tex]

= 13

So, 13 bottles are prepared which contains 6.5 ounces of soap from 84.5 ounces of soap.

The amount at which each bottle is sold = $5.50

The total amount earned by selling all the bottles of liquid soap = [tex]13 \times 5.50[/tex]

= $71.5

So, the students will earn $71.5 if they sell all the bottles of liquid soap.
