First find the cost per member of the hardcover books: $30 / book * 6 books = $180. Then find the cost per member of the paperback books: $12 / book * 6 books = $72. Then find the total cost per member: $180 + $72 + $150 = $402 / member. Now find the total amount of money by multiplying the cost per member by the number of members: $402 / member * 6 members = $2412. So, the answer is 2412.
