Question

Karla and 3 friends go to the movies and each person buys a ticket and a box of popcorn. Movie tickets cost $12 each. Together, Karla and her friends spend $68. Which equation can you use to find the cost of a box of popcorn? A. 4(12) + p = 68 B. 4(12 + p) = 68 C. 12 + 4p = 68 D. 12p + 4 = 68

Answer 1

The answer is B

Explanation:

Got it right on edge

Answer 2

12 x 4 definitely needs to be in the equation because it is the cost of the tickets for the 4 people. 12 x 4 is 48
if they spent 68 dollars then 4(12 +p) = 68
48 + 4p = 68
The answer is B.
