Step-by-step explanation:

A deli sells 4 bags of takis for $5.

They also sell 5 bags of Lays Potato Chips for $3.75. A dozen bags of takis means twelve bags of takis. We want to determine the cost of twelve bags of takis. This would be determined by multiplying 12 bags of takis by the cost of 1 bag of takis (. It becomes

1 bag of takis = 5/4 = $1.25

12 bags of takis = 12 * 1.25 = $15

We also want to determine the cost of 10 bags of Lays Potato chips. This would be determined by multiplying 10 bags Lays Potato chips by the cost of 1 bag of Lays Potato chips. It becomes

1 bag of Lays Potato chips = 3.75/5 = $0.75

10 bags of Lays Potato chips = 10 * 0.75 = $7.5

Total cost of a dozen bags of Takis and 10 bags of Lays Potato chips

= 15 + 7.5 = $22.5
