Question

The table shows the amount that each person spend on snacks, games, and souvenirs the las time they went to the carnival.

Answer 1

Sinea:

Last trip: snacks $5/ games $8/ souvenirs $12

If she spends $ 40 on snacks =>

40/5 = 8

=> multiply the three number times 8 =>

5*8 / 8*8 / 12*8 = 40 / 64 / 96 and that adds up: 40 + 64 + 96 = 164

Ren

Last trip: snacks $10/ games $8/ souvenirs $20

If he spends $ 40 on snacks => 40 / 10 = 4

=> 10*4 / 8*4 / 20*4 = 40 / 32 / 80.

That adds up 40 + 32 + 80 = 152

So, Sinea spends more than Ren: 164 vs 152
