Question

3 friends are selling items at a bake sale. May makes $23.25 selling bread. Inez sells gift baskets and make 100 times as much as May. Jo sells pies and makes 1 tenths of the money Inez makes. How much money does each friend make?

Answer 1

Answer:

May: $23.25

Inez: $2325

Jo: $232.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Inez makes 100 times as much as May. Since May makes $23.25, move the decimal point two places to the right to multiply the number by 100. You will get $2325. Jo makes 1/10 of the money Inez makes. Pretend there is a decimal point at the end of 2325. Move the decimal point one place to the left to divide by 10. You will get $232.5.
