The Maysville Town Council paid $47,400 for a monument to honor its
veterans. They want to buy another monument at 3/5 the price of the first.
What will the total cost of the two monuments be?
To find the price of the second monument, you need to multiply the price of the first monument by 3/5. The price of the second monument is $47,400 * 3/5 = $28,440.
To find the total cost of the two monuments, you need to add the price of the first monument to the price of the second monument. The total cost of the two monuments is $47,400 + $28,440 = $75,840. Answer: \boxed{75,840}.
