Question

John got $30 for weeding the garden. He used money to buy a $15.25 video game and three snacks that cost $1.25 each. He bought his friend a snack too. If he went home with 1/6 of the money he started with, how much did his friends snack cost? A $5.00 B $6.00 C $8.50 D $11.00 E $13.50 F $14.75

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

His friends snack was 6 dollars.

15.25+1.25= 16

16+1.25= 17.25

17.25+1.25= 19

1/6 of 30 is 5 because 5x6=30.

30-19=11

He has to have 5 left over so the snack was 6 dollars.
