Step-by-step explanation:To solve this problem using Polya’s problem-solving steps, follow these steps:### 1. **Understand the Problem:**- **Given:** - The price of 1 kilogram of okra is ₱40.50. - The price of 1 kilogram of squash is ₱5.00 less than the price of okra. - Aling Gina sold 20 kilograms of okra and 17 kilograms of squash.- **Find:** The total sale.### 2. **Devise a Plan:**- Calculate the price of 1 kilogram of squash.- Find the total revenue from selling okra.- Find the total revenue from selling squash.- Add the total revenue from okra and squash to get the total sale.### 3. **Carry Out the Plan:**1. **Calculate the price of 1 kilogram of squash:** \[ \text{Price of squash} = \text{Price of okra} - 5.00 \] \[ \text{Price of squash} = 40.50 - 5.00 = 35.50 \]2. **Find the total revenue from selling 20 kilograms of okra:** \[ \text{Revenue from okra} = \text{Price per kilogram of okra} \times \text{Quantity of okra} \] \[ \text{Revenue from okra} = 40.50 \times 20 = 810.00 \]3. **Find the total revenue from selling 17 kilograms of squash:** \[ \text{Revenue from squash} = \text{Price per kilogram of squash} \times \text{Quantity of squash} \] \[ \text{Revenue from squash} = 35.50 \times 17 = 603.50 \]4. **Calculate the total sale:** \[ \text{Total Sale} = \text{Revenue from okra} + \text{Revenue from squash} \] \[ \text{Total Sale} = 810.00 + 603.50 = 1413.50 \]### 4. **Review the Solution:**- Check if all calculations are correct.- Verify the total sale calculation.The total sale amount for Aling Gina is **₱1413.50**.
