Rita bought fabric and ribbon from a store the ribbon cost $18.50 rita paid the cashier $50.00 and received change of $5.25 how much did the fabric cost

Answer 1

1.Rita spent $26.25 on fabric.


2. I know this because...
- First, I subtracted the cost of the ribbon from how much she paid.
· Equation: $50.00 - $18.50 = $31.50

- Second, I subtracted the change received by the reduced cost ($31.50)
· Equation: $31.50 - $5.25 = $26.25

3. So, the final amount of money Rita spent on fabric is $26.25.
