Question: For breakfast, Chandler bought a bagel for $1.25 and a glass of orange juice for $2.75. At lunch, Chandler spent $8.00 on a sandwich and $1.70 on a carton of milk. How much more money did Chandler spend on lunch than on breakfast?
(1) $5.20
(2) $5.70
(3) $5.10
(4) $5
Solution:
Step 1: Find the total cost of breakfast.
$1.25 + $2.75 = $4.00
Step 2: Find the total cost of lunch.
$8.00 + $1.70 = $9.70
Step 3: Find how much more lunch cost than breakfast.
$9.70 − $4.00 = $5.70
Chandler spent $5.70 more on lunch.
Then the option is (2) $5.70
