Question: 1 / 400

Cargo weighing 6,520 tons is assessed a fee of 6 cents per ton. What is the total fee for the cargo?

390.60

391.20

To determine the total fee for the cargo, you multiply the weight of the cargo in tons by the fee assessed per ton.

In this case, the cargo weighs 6,520 tons and the fee is 6 cents per ton. To find the total fee, you convert the cents to dollars for easier calculation: 6 cents equals 0.06 dollars.

Now, you perform the multiplication:

\[

6,520 \text{ tons} \times 0.06 \text{ dollars/ton} = 391.20 \text{ dollars}

\]

This shows that the total fee for the cargo comes out to be 391.20 dollars. Therefore, the correct answer reflects the proper calculation of the cargo fee based on the provided weight and rate, confirming that the answer is accurate for the given problem.
