ok there these 3 kids who sold cookies and here are there rates and if their continuing a the rate if they sold the cookies at 2.00 a piece how many days will it take to make 320.00
at their rates?
Maria 39cookies/13days

Stephen 42cookies/7days
Aisha 21cookies / 3 days
I don't understand how you get the answer 320 please show me

I multiplied 2.00 by the amount of each person sold and it only comes out to 210, how do you get 320?

The question is asking how many days it will take them to sell #320 worth of cookies.
Answered by rian
sorry ms sue but I am still confused, what do you multiply by $2.00 then to get the answer of $320? I am stumped at what to do!
Answered by Reiny
Maria sells 3 cookies per day
Stephen sells 6 cookies per day
Aisha sells7 cookies per day

together they sell 16 cookies per day

number of cookies needed to make $320 = 320/2 = 160

number of days needed to sell 160 cookies at a rate of 16 cookies per day
= 160/16 = 10 days
