Find the total cost, rounded to the nearest cent, of 3.9 pounds of corned beef at $5.49 per pound and 4.6 pounds of pastrami at $4.95 per pound.

Answer: $44.18

Explanation:

Given the following:

Cost of corned beef per pound = $5.49

Cost of pastrami per pound = $4.95

Pound of corned beef = 3.9 pounds

Pound of pastrami = 4.6 pounds

Therefore;

Total cost = (cost per pound * number of pound)

Total Cost of corned beef = 3.9 * $5.49 = $21.411

Total cost of pastrami = 4.6 * $4.95 = $22.77

Total cost of corned beef and pastrami:

$21.411 + $22.77 = $44.181

$44.18
