Jessica chose a fruit cup and a salad as the side dishes with her lunch every day for 15 days.

Each fruit cup cost $0.75
Each salad cost $1.50

What was the total cost of Jessica’s side dishes for 15 days?

1 answer

Let's calculate the cost of each side dish first:

Cost of fruit cup per day = $0.75
Cost of salad per day = $1.50

Total cost of side dishes per day = $0.75 + $1.50 = $2.25

Now, calculate the total cost of side dishes for 15 days:

Total cost for 15 days = 15 days * $2.25/day = $33.75

Therefore, the total cost of Jessica's side dishes for 15 days was $33.75.
