Question

5. Jenny has $65 in her checking account. She bought 9 equally priced DVDs and paid with acheck. Her new account balance is $32. How much was each DVD?

Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \text{Money in Jenny's checking account = \$65} \\ \text{After buying 9 equally priced DVDs;} \\ \text{Account Balance= \$32} \end{gathered}`

This implies that, the money spent on the 9 equally priced DVDs is:

`\text{Money Spent on the 9 equally priced DVDs= 65 -32 =\$3}3`

Therefore, the amount spent on each DVD is:

`(33)/(9)=\text{ \$3.67}`

Hence, each DVD costs $3.67
