How much money does Ted need to purchase the bananas? ** Ted needs 5 bananas and they each cost $2. To purchase the bananas, Ted needs 5*2= <<5*2=10>>10 dollars
How much money does Ted need to purchase the oranges? ** Because Ted needs 10 oranges and they each cost $1.50, Ted needs 10*1.5= <<10*1.5=15>>15 dollars to pay for the oranges.
How much money does Ted need to purchase all the produce? ** All together Ted needs $10 for the bananas and $15 for the oranges, so combined Ted needs 10+15= <<10+15=25>>25 dollars to purchase all the produce.
