An office uses 3 reams of paper per week. At ₱250 per ream, how much is spent on paper in 8 weeks?
Correct answer: A. ₱6,000
Total reams = 3 × 8 = 24. Cost = 24 × ₱250 = ₱6,000. Find the total quantity first, then multiply by the unit price. Multiplying ₱250 by 24 is the same as ₱250 × 4 × 6 = ₱1,000 × 6.
