Question: Jose owns a swimming pool. He charges $3 for kids and twice that amount for adults. If 8 kids and 10 adults swim in his swimming pool per day, how much money will he earn per week? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Jose can earn $3 x 8 = $24 per day for kids. He charges $3 x 2 = $6 per adult. So, he can earn $6 x 10 = $60 per day for adults. Jose earns $60 + $24 = $84 per day for kids and adults. Therefore, he can earn $84 x 7 = $588 per week. So the answer is 588.
