Answer 1

To estimate the shop's total earnings from selling dumplings, we can start by finding the number of plates sold. Since there are 12 dumplings per plate, we divide the total number of dumplings sold by 12:

85,248 dumplings / 12 dumplings per plate = 7,104 plates

Next, we multiply the number of plates by the price per plate:

7,104 plates * $9.89 per plate = $70,269.36

So, the value that best estimates the shop's total earnings from selling dumplings is $70,269.36

Answer 3

My apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.

To find the shop's total earnings, we can multiply the number of dumplings sold by the price per dumpling:

85,248 dumplings * $9.89 per dumpling = $842,391.12

So, the value that best estimates the shop's total earnings from selling dumplings is $842,391.12.
