Joelle bought 20 lollipops and 6 bags of Doritos for a total cost of $8.20. She knows that each lollipop cost 25 cents and reasoned that two bags of chip must cost a little more than $1.00. Is this a reasonable guess? Why or why not?

Answer:

no

Explanation:

because 20Ă—.25 = 5 so the lollipop cost $5.00 and then you only have 3.20 left over

I mean... I think it's a reasonable guess because not gonna lie- chips can get expensive. BUT- It doesn't really make sense because like, she bought so many lollipops. My brain isn't really functioning to do the math- but my best guess would beeeee... UNreasonble. I'm super super sorry if it's wrong. Math isn't my strong point, sorry. Have a nice day!
