Question

Sofia buys 3.8 pounds of potatoes for $0.85 per pound. Flynn buys 4.2 pounds of potatoes for $0.75 per pound.

How much more does Sofia spend than Flynn?

Answer 1

Explanation:

A. $0.08

Explanation:

I would find out the total price of potatoes for each person:

Sofia: $0.85 x 3.8lb = $3.23

Flynn: $0.75 x 4.2lb = $3.15

To get the final answer, I would subtract to find the difference between the two prices.

$3.23 - $3.15 = $0.08
