Lizzy: Gina is figuring out how much she'll have to spend on college this year. She's taking 14 credits that cost $450 each, and she has to pay $120 for each of her 5 textbooks plus a $200 facilities fee. How much will Gina spend in total?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
First, find out how much will Gina pay for tuition by multiplying her number of credits by the cost per credit: 14 * 450 = $6300. Then find out how much she pays for textbooks by multiplying the number of books by the cost per book: 5 * 120 = $600. Finally, add up all Gina's costs to find the total of 6300 + 600 + 200 = $7100. Final answer: 7100.
