Question

At Michael’s smoothie shop smoothies cost $3.50 during the week and $4.00 on weekends. If Jonathan bought a smoothie every day except Saturday how much did he spend on smoothies that week?

Answer 1

Answer: $21.50

Explanation:

There are 5 days that are not included as a "weekend" so our first equation would be 5 x $3.50 = $17.50.

Jonathan only buys a smoothie on Sunday. 1 x $4.00 = $4.00

$17.50 = $4.00 = $21.50
