Question

The bread is on sale for $1.50 so Erica is also going to buy candy or gum. Which can she afford?

candy bar for $1.00


pack of gum for 75 cents


discounted candy for 80 cents


5 pieces of gum for 25 cents

Answer 1

Ok, so she started off with $5.00.


She bought milk for $2.99.

She buys bread, which costs $1.50.

Subtracting the money she wasted, the total would be $0.51.

The only thing she could buy is 5 pieces of gum for 25 cents.

Her change will be $0.26.

Hope this helps!
