Kevin loves turkey sandwiches! How much will it cost to make a turkey sandwich that has 1/4 pound of turkey, 2 avocados, 2 slices of whole wheat bread, 2 tomatoes, and 1/8 pound worth of provolone cheese? Round to the nearest hundredth.

If turkey is $10.00 per pound, avocados $1.00 each, Whole Grain Wheat Bread - $4 per loaf (20 slices per loaf), Tomatoes - $1 per pound (1 pound = 4 tomatoes), provolone cheese $5.00 per pound

Solution:

P = (1/4)*$10+2*$1+2*$0.2+2*$0.25+(1/8)*$5 = $6.03

So the total price is $6.03
