Question

Shortstop Sporting Goods Store received a shipment of 9 new baseball gloves. Each glove costs $45.50. What is the total value of the baseball glove shipment?

Answer 1

To find the total value of the baseball glove shipment, you need to multiply the cost of each glove by the number of gloves received.

The formula to calculate the total value is:

\[
\text{Total Value} = \text{Number of Gloves} \times \text{Cost per Glove}
\]

Given that the number of gloves is 9 and the cost per glove is $45.50, we can substitute the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Total Value} = 9 \times 45.50
\]

Now, performing the multiplication:

\[
9 \times 45.50 = 409.50
\]

Thus, the total value of the baseball glove shipment is **$409.50**.
