Answer: each boy had $2.5 left after buying his ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel and three of his friends went to the movies. They originally had a total of $40. If each boy had the same amount of money, it means that the amount that each boy( 4 boys in total) has is 40/4 = $10

Let x represent the amount of money that each boy had left after buying his ticket. If each boy spent $7.50 on a ticket, then the equation becomes

x + 7.5 = 10

Subtracting 7.5 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

x = 10 - 7.5 = 2.5

using two of the number cards from the list, fill in the gaps so that the values are in ascending order
Mademuasel [1]

The two gaps of the series are 236 % and 2.41.

The series is 2(32/100) _, _ , 247/100.

We are given that the series is in ascending order.

Let the missing numbers be x and y respectively.

We know that  2(32/100) = 2.32 in decimal form and 247/100 is 2.47 in decimal form.

Hence, we can write,

2.32 < x < y < 2.47

The given options are:-

231 % = 231/100 = 2.31 < 2.32

Hence, it is not the answer.

0.42 < 2.31

Hence, it is not the answer.

236 % = 236/100 = 2.36 > 2.31

Hence, this is one of the answers.

34 % = 0.34

0.34 < 2.31

Hence, it is not the answer.

0.237 < 2.31

Hence, it is not the answer.

2.41 > 2.32

Hence, this is one of the answers.

24.2 % = 24.2/100 = 0.242 < 2.31

Hence, it is not the answer.

0.36 < 2.31

Hence, it is not the answer.

As, 2.36 < 2.41, hence,

x = 2.36 or 236 % and,

y = 2.41
