How to Say ‘That will be 30 yuan in total.’ in Simplified Chinese

一共三十元。

yī gòng sān shí yuán

[ee gong san shir ywen]

💬 Usage Tip: Chinese often gives the total as just [一共] + amount, with no subject like "it is" or "that will be." The amount itself completes the sentence: [一共五十元] "50 yuan in total."
