Ask about a price and confirm what you need to pay.
The idea
Use How much is for one item and How much are for several. Ask whether a price includes a service, and check the total for everything.
Examples
- How much is this notebook?
- How much are these cups?
- Does that price include delivery?
- Is the price for one ticket or two?
- How much do the apples cost per kilo?
- Is the total twelve pounds?
