Question

Last Saturday, Emily and Lauren went to the ice cream shop. Enter an expression showing how much they spent together if Emily spent $4.53 and Lauren spent d dollars.

Answer 1

With the information provided, you can say that the total amount they spent together would be equal to the result of adding up the amount Emily spent plus the amount Lauren spent, which would be:

Amount Emily spent: $4.53

Amount Lauren spent: d

The expression is:

x=4.53+d, where:

x is the amount they spent together

d is the amount Lauren spent
