Mr. Carter is planning a special event for 98 guests. A catering company tells him that the cost of food for each guest will be $16. The cost for drinks for each guest will be another $5. Based on that, Mr. Carter works out that the total catering bill will be $20,580. Does that sound about right?

No, the correct answer is $2058.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should multiply 16 by 98. This will get you 1568. Then, you multiply 5 by 98, which will get you 490. Once you have these two numbers, you add them together, which gets you the total cost of $2058.

Hope this helped!

21/58.
