Well, 10 tables need 3 lilies each. 10*3=30. To find the cost of all of the lilies, you need to do 30*$0.92, which equals $27.60.

Tamia Hampton · Answer 2

Well you know there are ten tables and each table gets 3 lilies, so 3 multiplied by 10 equals 30. So that means you need 30 lilies, each lilly costs $.92. You multiply 30 and. 92 and you get 27.60. So you total cost for Lillies is $27.60.
