Buying Plants

There are times when it will be easier to buy plants instead of starting them from seed. It is much easier to buy tomato plants from a garden supply store, because they are already a decent size by this point. It is difficult to grow tomato plants, so it will be easier in the beginning if you buy them already started. You should buy more than one, because this will help with the pollination of the flowers, which will eventually produce the fruit. Perhaps you decide that you would like to buy three tomato plants from your local greenhouse. The plants are $9 each. How much will it cost to buy the plants?

Solution: 3 plants * $9 = $27
