Richard's company bought 84.083 pounds of wood and 59.21 pounds of brick. How many pounds of material did the company buy in all?

1 answer

To find the total amount of material bought, we add the weight of the wood (84.083 pounds) to the weight of the brick (59.21 pounds).
Total = 84.083 pounds + 59.21 pounds = <<84.083+59.21=143.293>>143.293 pounds
Therefore, Richard's company bought a total of 143.293 pounds of material.
