Answer this question:The math questions in a contest are divided into three rounds: easy, average, and hard. There are corresponding points given for each round. That is 2, 3, and 5 points for every correct answer in the easy, average, and hard rounds, respectively. Suppose Kim got 6 correct answers in the easy; 2 correct answers in the average; and 4 correct answers in the difficult round, what are her total points in the contest?
Kim got 6 points / round x 2 round = 12 points in the easy round. She got 2 points / round x 3 rounds = 6 points in the average round. She got 4 points / round x 5 rounds = 20 points in the difficult round. So her total points is 12 points + 6 points + 20 points = 38 points.
The answer is 38.
