Ellie and her two sisters love to go to the movies with both of their parents. But, going to the

movies costs $9 for each person. So, this Friday they all decide to stay home and buy a
movie online for $19. How much money does Ellie's family save by watching a movie at home
instead of going to the theater?

ANSWER

= $26

Step-by-step explanation

Since probably they all watched the same movie bought online so therefore they only used $19.

NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN ELLIE'S FAMILY

Parents i.e (mum and dad) = 2

Ellie (herself) = 1

Two sisters = 2

Therefore (2+2+1) = 5

TOTAL MONEY SPENT ON WAYCHING A MOVIE FROM THE THEATRE

= 5×$9

= $45

MONEY SAVED

= $45 - $19

= $26
