To find the shop's total earnings from selling dumplings, we need to multiply the number of dumplings sold by the price per plate.
Number of plates sold = 85,248 dumplings / 12 dumplings per plate = 7104 plates
Total earnings = Number of plates sold * Price per plate = 7104 plates * $9.89 per plate = $70,382.56
