Question

Louisa went to the corner store and bought a bunch of candys that each cost $0.25. she spent a total of $4.75. how many candys did she buy in all?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the number of candies Louisa bought, we can divide the total amount she spent by the cost of each candy.

Total amount spent = $4.75

Cost of each candy = $0.25

Number of candies = Total amount spent / Cost of each candy

Number of candies = $4.75 / $0.25

Number of candies = 19

Therefore, Louisa bought a total of 19 candies.

Answer 2

`\sf \textsf{ Louisa bought in $\boxed{\sf \$19} $.}`

Explanation:

Let's say the number of candies that Louisa bought is x.

Since each candy costs $0.25, Louisa spent a total of $0.25x.

We are given that Louisa spent a total of $4.75. So we can set up the following equation:

`\sf \$0.25x = \$4.75`

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.25

`\sf x = (4.75)/(0.25)`

`\sf x = 19`

`\sf \textsf{ Therefore, Louisa bought all candles in $\boxed{\sf \$19} $}`
