Jezebel needs to buy two dozens of red roses and 3 pieces of sunflowers for a bouquet that she is going to arrange. Each red rose costs $1.50 and each sunflower costs $3. How much will Jezebel pay for all those flowers?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
Jezebel needs to buy 2 x 12 = 24 red roses. Twenty - four red roses will cost 24 x $1.50 = $36. Three sunflower will cost 3 x $3 = $9. Thus, Jezebel will pay $36 + $9 = $45 for all those flowers.
Thus, the answer is 45.
