Please help with this word problem,Laurie, Moesha, and Carrie went to the mall. Laurie spent $20, Moesha spent $25, and Carrie spent $30. How many did they spend in all?

Answer 1

To determine how much they all spent we need to add the expenses of each person: Laurie, Moesha, and Carie. This is shown below:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ total=Laurie+Moesha+Carrie} \\ \text{total}=20+25+30=75 \end{gathered}`

They spent a total of $75.
