Answer 1

To find the total earnings from selling dumplings, we can multiply the number of dumplings sold by the price per plate.

Since there are 12 dumplings per plate, the number of plates sold is 85,248 / 12 = 7104.

The total earnings is then 7104 * $9.89 = $70433.56.

Since none of the given options match this value, we can assume that there might be an error in the question or the given options.
