Problem of the Week - Lower Elementary - Jan. 3, 2021 to Jan. 9, 2021

Lower Elementary: 

Question: Abby has $5.00 to spend on snacks. Cookies cost 50 cents per cookie, chips cost 75 cents per bag, and juice costs $1.00 per bottle. If Abby buys one of each, how much money will she have left? 

Answer: $2.75

Solution: Abby's snacks cost $0.50 + $0.75 + $1.00 = $2.25. So, Abby will have $5.00 - $2.25 = $2.75 left.
