Question

2

Alice went to a toy store. She paid for 2 jigsaw
puzzles and 4 packs of cards with 3 ten dollar bills.
The price for a pack of cards is $2. She received
$4 in change.
What was the total cost of the 2 jigsaw puzzles?
A $9
B $18
C $22
D $26

Answer 1

C. $22

Explanation:

You have $30, then you multiply 4x2=8(Price of the Cards)

next subtract the $8 from $30 (30-8)

Your final answer is 22

Answer 2

Alice paid for the 4 packs of cards with 4 x $2 = $8.

She used 3 ten dollar bills, which is 3 x $10 = $30.

Therefore, the cost of the 2 jigsaw puzzles is:

Total cost of the purchase - Cost of the packs of cards

= ($30 + $4 change) - $8

= $26

So, the total cost of the 2 jigsaw puzzles was $26.

The answer is (D) $26.
