Let’s solve this step by step.
We are asked to find the total cost of buying:
- 1 Chicken Sandwich (the one with lettuce and tomato, priced at $4.89)
- 1 Small Side Salad ($2.55)
- 1 Chocolate Cake dessert ($1.89)
- 1 Iced Tea drink ($1.69)
Now, let’s add them up carefully:
Step 1: Add the sandwich and salad
$4.89 + $2.55 = ?
Break it down:
4.89 + 2.00 = 6.89
6.89 + 0.55 = 7.44
So, $7.44
Step 2: Add the chocolate cake
$7.44 + $1.89 = ?
7.44 + 1.00 = 8.44
8.44 + 0.89 = 9.33
So, $9.33
Step 3: Add the iced tea
$9.33 + $1.69 = ?
9.33 + 1.00 = 10.33
10.33 + 0.69 = 11.02
So, $11.02
Double-checking all items and prices from the menu:
✔ Chicken Sandwich — $4.89
✔ Small Side Salad — $2.55
✔ Chocolate Cake — $1.89
✔ Iced Tea — $1.69
Adding again in a different order to verify:
Start with drinks and desserts first:
Iced Tea $1.69 + Chocolate Cake $1.89 = $3.58
Then add salad: $3.58 + $2.55 = $6.13
Then add sandwich: $6.13 + $4.89 = $11.02
Same result! So we’re confident.
Final Answer:
$11.02
