Question

Jeff had 20 $ he spent 1/8 on his money on lunch and 2/5 of his money at the movies. How much money does Jeff have left

Answer 1

$9.50

I did a test with this question and the correct answer was 9.50

Answer 2

9.50$

Explanation:

First, multiply 20 by the given fractions

20*1/8=2.5

20*2/5=8

Add the two together to get the total amount of money Jeff spent, 10.5, then subtract 10.5 from 20 to get the total amount he has left, 9.5
