Question

A restaurant owner pays $.45 for a gallon of soda water. If the restaurant's waitress uses 1.5 gallons a week to make Italian sodas for her customers, how much must the owner spend on soda water in a year?

Answer 1

I am assuming they want you to use 1 year = 52 weeks? Or to be specific 1 year = 52.1775

Answer 2

i beleive we have to use Unitary Method?

Answer 3

Whichever they want you to use, just multiply .45*1.5 to get the amount per week, then multiply that result by whichever value they want you to use.

Answer 4

so 78 is wrong ?

Answer 5

Can you show how you got 78?

Answer 6

Multiply 1.5 * 52 to get how many gallons per year are used. Then multiply that by 0.45 to get the cost of gallons per year.

Answer 7

i did 1.5 x 52

Answer 8

Answer 9

That is the gallons a year, you need to take it one step further and multiply it by the cost per gallon.
