Question

If a pack of cigarettes cost $6.00, determine the approximate amount of money that would be spent in one week if a person where to smoke 1 pack each day?

Answer 1

If a pack of cigarettes is $6.00, there's 7 days in a week, and the person is smoking a single pack a day, it would cost $42.00 per week. We know this because we would multiply the cost, being $6.00, by the number of days in a week, being 7.
