Item B: 5 units @ $6.00. What is the total cost for Item B?

• A. 25
• B. 30
• C. 35
• D. 40

Answer: (B)

Total cost is found by multiplying the quantity by the price per unit. For Item B, 5 units at $6.00 each gives 5 × 6 = 30 dollars, so the total cost is 30. The other numbers come from using different unit prices (5 × 5 = 25, 5 × 7 = 35, 5 × 8 = 40).
