Travis goes through 2 boxes of cereal a week. If each box costs $3.00 and he eats 2 boxes every week for an entire year, 52 weeks, how much does he spend on cereal?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
He eats 2 boxes for 52 weeks so he eats 2 * 52 = 104 boxes. Each box costs $3.00 and he buys 104 boxes so he spends 3 * 104 = $312.00.
Thus, the answer is 312.
