John orders food for a massive restaurant. He orders 1000 pounds of beef for $8 per pound. He also orders twice that much chicken at $3 per pound. How much did everything cost?
Let's be accurate as possible and think first.
14000
The beef cost $8 * 1000 = $8000.

He buys 1000 * 2 = 2000 pounds of chicken.

So the chicken cost 2000 * $3 = $6000.

So the total cost is $8000 + $6000 = $14,000.

.

So, the answer is 14000
