The forms used in your coding area cost $100.00 per one thousand forms for the first 2,000 and $50 for every one thousand thereafter. If you need to order 5,000 forms, what is the total cost?
100.00
Plus 50.00
Plus 50.00
Plus 50.00
What total do you get?
To calculate the total cost, we first need to determine how many sets of one thousand forms are needed.
Since you need to order 5,000 forms, you'll need 5 sets of one thousand forms.
For the first 2,000 forms, the cost is $100 for every one thousand forms. So, the cost for the first 2,000 forms will be:
$100 x 2 = $200
After the first 2,000 forms, each additional set of one thousand forms costs $50. Since you need 5 sets of one thousand forms in total, the additional cost will be:
($50 x 3) = $150
Finally, to calculate the total cost, we add the cost of the first 2,000 forms and the cost for the additional 3 sets of 1,000 forms:
$200 + $150 = $350
Therefore, the total cost for ordering 5,000 forms is $350.
