At the art store, Maria bought a poster board for $0.65, glitter for $3.29, and glue for $1.99. She told Carl that she paid $5.00 for everything. True or False?

Answer:

False

If we wanted to solve this equation, we can use this expression:

  • 0.65 + 3.29 + 1.99 = 5.93

Maria must have spent $5.93, making her statement false.
