Question

Marten bought 7 pairs of socks for $3 each, and a sweater for

Answer 1

The total amount spent would be $38

Explanation:

If we add the $21 (The cost of the socks) to the $12 (the cost of the sweater) and the $5 (the cost of the coffee) the total amount spent is $38. To find out the change given subtract $38 from the money he originally had
