Jerry Conner · Answer 1

4R+2S=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the raspberry be represented as R

Let the strawberry be represented as S

Since a carton of raspberry is$4=4R

Since a carton of strawberry is $2=2S

And the sum of the two is 24

4R+2S=24

Since a specific value is not given

So the final answer is

4R+2S=24
