Use reasoning to lead to the answer of the following question:
Jake has 3 snakes. Each of them lays 2 eggs. Most of the baby snakes sell for $250 but one super rare one costs 4 times as much. How much did he get from selling the snakes?

2250
He has 3 * 2 = 6 baby snakes.

So 6 - 1 = 5 sell for $250 each.

So those snakes sell for 5 * $250 = $1250.

The other snake sells for $250 * 4 = $1000.

So in total, the snakes sold for $1250 + $1000 = $2250.

.

The final answer: 2250
