At Tian Tian Fruits Stall, chikoos are sold in packets of 2 and peaches are sold in packets of 3. Opal bought 12 chikoos and 6 peaches. How much did she pay for the chikoos and peaches altogether?
| Fruits |
Cost |
| One packet of 2 chikoos |
$6 |
| One packet of 3 peaches |
$6.60 |
Number of packets of chikoos
= 12 ÷ 2
= 6
Cost of the chikoos
= 6 x 6
= $36
Number of packets of peaches
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Cost of the peaches
= 2 x 6.60
= $13.20
Total cost for the chikoos and the peaches
= 36 + 13.20
= $49.20
Answer(s): $49.20
