$450

Respuesta :

Answer: $250

Explanation: 150 x 12 = 1,800 x 3 = 5,400 + 2,900 = 8,300

(Correct Answer)  250 x 12 = 3,000 x 3 = 9,000 + 2,900 = 11,900

                               350 x 12 = 4,200 x 3 = 12,600 + 2,900 = 15,900

                                450 x 12 = 5,400 x 3 = 16,200 + 2,900 = 19,100

As you see, 250 will be the best option.
