Part 1. How did you compute sums of dollar amounts that were not whole numbers? For example, how did you compute the sum of $5.89 and $1.45? Use this example to explain your strategy. Part 2. How did you compute products of dollar amounts that were not whole numbers? For example, how did you compute the cost of 4 pounds of beef at $5.89 per pound? Use this example to explain your strategy.

idk the answer but just put a

step-by-step explanation:

5.5

step-by-step explanation:

597

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
