Question #N884
A store sells apples and oranges. The price of an apple is $\$0.75$ and the price of an orange is $\$1.25$. If a customer bought 3 apples and 5 oranges, how much did the customer spend in total?
A. $\$8.25$
B. $\$9.75$
C. $\$10.00$
D. $\$11.25$
Correct Answer is: D
The cost of the apples is 3 * $0.75 = $2.25. The cost of the oranges is 5 * $1.25 = $6.25. The total cost is $2.25 + $6.25 = $8.50.
