Answer 1

If she only gets paid for each cabinet then I️t should be 6 x 350 so your answer is A.2100

Answer 2

The answer is B. Since she made 6 cabinets and each cabinet costs $350, multiply 6 by $350. Then she got halfway through another cabinet, so divide 350 by 2. 6 times 350 equals $2100. 350 divided by 2 equals $175. $2100 + $175 equals $2275.
