Question

carmen and wayne sell 25 birdhouses at a craft fair they share the money equally if each birdhouse costs $14 how much money will carmen and wayne each receive

Answer 1

Hello! So Carmen and Wayne sell 25 birdhouses at a store together that costs $14 each. We can find out how much money is made by multiplying the amount of birdhouses by the cost for each birdhouse. 25 * 14 is 350. That's $350 made from them being sold. Now, we have to split that money into two, because two people worked to sell them. 350/2 is 175. There. Carmen and Wayne each get $175.
