Answer:

$14.30

Explanation:

Les had $26.00 when he went to the box city market to buy some fresh fruits and vegetables.

When he purchased all the items he had $11.70

We will subtract the money he had when he left from the market, from the money he had, when he went to the market.

Les spend on food = 26.00 - 11.70

= $14.30

He spend $14.30 on food.
