Ted needs to purchase 5 bananas and 10 oranges. If bananas cost $2 each and oranges cost $1.50 each. How much money does Ted need to purchase 5 bananas and 10 oranges?
Please answer and provide answer explanation.
25
Ted needs 5 bananas and they each cost $2.

To purchase the bananas, Ted needs 5 * 2 = 10 dollars.

Because Ted needs 10 oranges and they each cost $1.

50, Ted needs 10 * 1.

5 = 15 dollars to pay for the oranges.

All together Ted needs $10 for the bananas and $15 for the oranges, so combined Ted needs 10 + 15 = 25 dollars to purchase all the produce.

.

Therefore, the answer is 25
