Isabela bought twice as many cucumbers as pencils, with both costing $20 each. If she got a 20% discount on the pencils and bought 100 cucumbers, calculate the total amount she spent to buy the items. Think carefully first, then make a decision:

Isabela bought twice as many cucumbers as pencils, meaning she bought 100 / 2 = 50 pencils. The total cost for purchasing the pencils without the discount is 50 * $20 = $1000. At a 20% discount, Isabela paid 20 / 100 * $1000 = $200 less. The total amount of money she used to buy the pencils is $1000 - $200 = $800. She also bought the cucumbers at a total cost of $20 * 100 = $2000. The total cost for the items is $2000 + $800 = $2800. So, the answer is 2800.
