Dee is buying lillies to to use centerpieces for a special dinner. Each centerpiece will have three lillies. There are a total of ten tables. After a discount for buying in bulk, each lilly costs $.92. Use the distributive property to figure the cost of the lillies.

Respuesta :

well you know there are ten tables and each table gets 3 lilies, so 3 multiplied by 10 equals 30. So that means you need 30 lilies, each lilly costs $.92. You multiply 30 and .92 and you get 27.60. So you total cost for Lillies is $27.60.
Well, 10 tables need 3 lilies each. 10×3=30. To find the cost of all of the lilies, you need to do 30×$0.92, which equals $27.60.
