Question

Х Dave and his brother, Theo, are selling cookies by the pound at the school bake sale. Dave sold 14.84 pounds of cookies and Theo sold 21.45 pounds of cookies. How many pounds did they sell altogether? A. 35.29 O B. 36.39 O C. 36.25 O D. 36.29

Answer 1

In order to calculate the amount of cookies made by both of them we need to add the individual amount that each one of them made. Therefore:

$\begin{gathered} \text{total = dave + theo} \\ \text{total = 14.84 + 21.45 = }36.29 \end{gathered}$

They made 36.29 pounds of cookies together.
