The question is incomplete:

Sasha buys bagels for her garage sale customers she buys all the chocolate chip bagels and half of the plain bagels each bagel cost 2.50 how much does Sasha spend on bagels? The table that shows the types of bagels sold at the bagel shop on Friday is attached.

a. $70

b. $20

c. $90

d. $110

Answer:

c. $90

Explanation:

First, you need to find the amount of bagels that Sasha purchased. The statement indicates that she buys all the chocolate chip bagels and the table shows that 28 chocolate chips bagels were sold, so that's the amount she purchased of this type of bagels. Also, the statement indicates that she buys half of the plain bagels and the table says that 16 plain bagels were sold, so you have to divide this amount by 2:

16/2=8

Then, you have to add the amount of chocolate chips bagels plus the amount of plain bagels that Sasha purchased:

28+8=36

Now that you know the amount of bagels that Sasha purchased, you have to multiply this for 2.50 that is the price per bagel:

36*2.50=90

According to this, the answer is that Sasha spends $90 on bagels.
