Question: A teacher has to order supplies for his class to do a science project. Each student needs a bow, a small bottle of vinegar and a box of baking soda. Bows are $5 each, a bottle of vinegar is $2 and a box of baking soda is $1. The teacher has 23 students in this class. How much will the supplies cost? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
The supplies for every student will cost 5 + 2 + 1 = $8. The supplies for the whole class will cost 8 * 23 = $184 in total. So the answer is 184.
