Answer:

280. Answer choice D

Step-by-step explanation:

1st month: 60 meals

2nd month: 33% more than 1st month - 80 meals

(1 + (33/100)) * 60 = (1.33)(60) = 79.8 meals (Round to 80 meals)

3rd month: 2(60+80) = 280 meals

(M) 280

Step-by-step explanation:

The first month the girls delivered 60 meals. For the second month 133% of 60 is (60 x 1.33) 79.8 which is ~ 80 meals. 80 + 60 = 140, 140 x 2 = 280

The answer is (M) 280
