Dear Dr. Data,
My two brothers and I want to go see a movie, the tickets are $5.75 per person an we also want to purchase candy for $2.25 and a drink for $3.50. How much money will we have left out of a $50 dollar bill? How much would we have left if we went to the evening show which is $2.50 more per ticket?
Prosperity student,
We added the three tickets and we got $17.25. Then we added the candy up and got $6.75. Then we added up the drinks and $10.50. Next we added all of it up and got $34.50, finally we subtracted that amount from $50. Our answer is $15.50. If you would go to the evening show, you would send another $7.50. If you subtract that from $15.50 you will have $8 left.
