Question

Jacob has $80 to purchase school supplies for charity. He bought 32 glue sticks and 32 boxes of crayons. Each glue stick cost $1.40, and each box of crayon cost $0.59. How much money did Jacob have left after these purchases?

Answer 1

He had about 16 dollars left over!!

Answer 2

He had 16.32 left over.

Explanation:

First, find how much he payed for the glue sticks by multiplying 32 by 1.40, which is 44.80. Next, find the cost of the crayons by multiplying 32 and 0.59, which is 18.88. Add these together, which gives you 63.68. Subtract that from 80, which gives us the final answer of 16.32.
