What is the total sales for Aaron and Bob combined if Aaron sells 23 apple pies at $10 each and Bob sells 17 beverages at $1 each?

$197
$227
$247
$267

The correct answer is: $247

To determine the total sales for Aaron and Bob combined, we first need to calculate each person's sales individually and then sum those amounts. Aaron sells 23 apple pies at $10 each. To find his total sales, we multiply the number of pies by the price per pie: 23 apple pies × $10/apple pie = $230. Bob sells 17 beverages at $1 each. To calculate his total sales, we multiply the number of beverages by the price per beverage: 17 beverages × $1/beverage = $17. Now, we add the total sales from both Aaron and Bob: Total sales = Aaron's sales + Bob's sales = $230 + $17 = $247. This total confidently aligns with the correct answer, confirming that Aaron and Bob's combined sales amount to $247. The calculations illustrate the straightforward process of multiplying quantity by price for individual sales and then aggregating the final amounts, ensuring clarity in understanding how the total was derived.
