The amount Cheryl will have left will be $1.90
- Total amount she had = 10 dollars
- Total amount she spent on sandwich = [tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] dollars (which is also expressed as 5.5)
- Total amount she spent on a drink = 2.60 dollars
Further Explanation
To determine the amount she has left, the amount she spent on sandwich and a drink will be added together, then the resulting value will be subtracted from the total amount.
Therefore,
- let the amount she will have left be L; L = ?
- Let amount she spent on sandwich be S; S = 5.5
- Let amount she spent of a drink be D; D = 2.60
- Let the total amount she had be T; T = 10
Hence L = T – (S + D)
Thus,
Deriving the amount she spent on sandwich and a drink:
= S + D
= 5.5 + 2.60
= 8.1
S + D = 8.1
Recall, L = T – (S + D)
Recall T = 10
Therefore,
L = 10 – (8.1)
L = 10 – 8.1
L = 1.90
Therefore, Cheryl will have $1.90 left.
The above expression is a number problem, and was solved with the aid of adding some significant numerical values together, and ultimately subtracting it from another number to get a final answer.
The Addition and Subtraction of the number values are functions of BODMAS.
