Question

You bring 1.5 dozen bagels to school.

A dozen bagels cost $5.98.
You used a coupon that took $1.00 off the total.

How much did you pay for the bagels?

Answer 1

Answer: You would pay $7.97 for the bagels.

Explanation:

(Price per Dozen * Amount) - Coupon = Price of Bagels

(5.98 * 1.5) - 1 = Price of Bagels

8.97 - 1 = Price of Bagels

Price of Bagels = $7.97
