Question

Rhonda had $300 to buy supplies for the animal shelter. She bought 8 bags of dog food and 11 leashes. Each bag of food cost $25.19, and each leash cost $4.65. How much money did Rhonda have left after her purchases? $11.65 $14.29 $22.91 $47.33

Answer 1

$47.33

Explanation:

she bought 8 bags of dog food so: 8 x 25.19 = 201.52

she bought 11 leashes so: 4.65 x 11 = 51.15

201.52 + 51.15 = 252.67

300 - 252.67 = 47.33

Answer 2

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We have 8 bags of dog food and each costs $25.19

8(25.19)=201.52

And we have 11 leashes each costing $4.65.

11(4.65)=51.15

We add these totals up.

201.52+51.15=252.67

We subtract this from 300 to see how much is left.

300-252.67=47.33

Rhonda had $47.33 left after her purchases.

Have a wonderful day! :D
