To calculate the total cost of Troy's order, we need to find the cost for each type of meat and then sum those costs.

  1. Cost of Ham:

    • Price per pound = $3.15
    • Pounds ordered = 8
    • Total cost for ham = 8 pounds * $3.15/pound = $25.20
  2. Cost of Cheese:

    • Price per pound = $1.85
    • Pounds ordered = 15
    • Total cost for cheese = 15 pounds * $1.85/pound = $27.75
  3. Cost of Turkey:

    • Price per pound = $3.40
    • Pounds ordered = 12
    • Total cost for turkey = 12 pounds * $3.40/pound = $40.80

Now, we sum these costs:

  • Total cost = Cost of Ham + Cost of Cheese + Cost of Turkey
  • Total cost = $25.20 + $27.75 + $40.80 = $93.75

Thus, the total cost of Troy's order is $93.75.

So the correct answer is:

  • $93.75
