A school has 109 students signed up for a science workshop. The school will buy every student attending the workshop a pencil, a folder, and an eraser. A package of 12 erasers is $0.75. Only whole packages of erasers can be bought. Folders are $0.10 each. A package of 8 pencils is $0.50. Only whole packages of pencils can be bought. How much will the school spend?

The amount is $25.4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 109 students to attend the science workshop.

Number of erasers needed is 109, but whole packages of erases can be bought which consist 12 erasers. The total packages of erasers needed would be 10.

The cost of 10 packages of erasers = $0.75 x 10

                                  = $7.5

The cost of 109 folders = 109 x $0.10

                                  = $10.9

Number of pencils needed is 109, but whole packages of pencils can be bought which consist 8 pencils. The total packages of pencils needed would be 14.

The cost of 14 packages of pencils = $0.50 x 14

                                  = $7.0

Total cost = $7.5 + $10.9 + $7.0

                = $25.4

The amount that would be spent by the school is $25.4
