Grandma wants to order 5 personalized backpacks for each of her grandchildren's first days of school. The backpacks are 20% off of $20.00 and having their names monogrammed on the back pack will cost $12.00 each. How much will the backpacks cost? Think carefully first, then make a decision:

She needs 5 backpacks that are $20.00 each so that's 5 * 20 = $100.00. The backpacks are currently 20% off so that's 100 * .20 = $20.00 off. The backpacks costs $100.00 but are $20.00 off so they will cost $100 - $20 = $80.00. She wants each of the 5 backpacks to have her grandchild's name monogramed on them which costs $12.00 each so that's 5 * $12 = $60.00. The backpacks cost $80.00 and the monogramming costs $60.00 so together they will cost $80 + $60 = $140.00. So, the answer is 140.
