Respuesta :

Mike wants to buy 2 lb of basmati rice and 3.9 lb of brown rice.

The prices are given as

Basmati rice = $4 per lb

Brown rice = $3 per lb

How much will he spend?

Simply multiply the quantity of rice by its price

[tex]\begin{gathered} Basmati\: rice=2\times\$4=\$8 \\ Brown\: rice=3.9\times\$3=\$11.7 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the total amount is

[tex]Total\: amount=\$8+\$11.7=\$19.7[/tex]

Therefore, Mike will spend $19.7
