Question

The Breyer twins split the cost of their purchase. They bought an aquarium for $28.00. They spent $14.00 on fish, and they spent $7.50 on plants for the aquarium. How much did each twin pay toward the total cost?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$24.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first add up all the costs:

$28+14+7.5 = 49.5$

Since they split it, let's divide that by 2:

$\frac{49.5}{2} = 24.75$

Thus, they both spent $24.75.
