44 ?
50 200

I don't know?

44 * 4 = = ?

Oh that was easier than I thought, it would be $176.

Thank you

You're welcome.

To calculate how much money the library will earn if b=44, we need to multiply the number of books sold by the price per book.

In this case, the price per book is $4.00.

So, to find the total amount of money earned, we can multiply 44 (the number of books sold) by $4.00:

44 x $4.00 = $176.00

Therefore, if the library sells 44 books, they will earn $176.00 in total.
