The flat fee for the shoes will only be paid once since the shoes will be used for all four games.  The cost per game will be paid each time one game finishes and a new one is started.

To calculate her cost add the fee for the shoes and the fee for each game played.  That would be $8 (shoes) + $10.50 (game 1) + $10.50 (game 2) + $10.50 (game 3) + $10.50 (game 4) = $50 (total cost).

Laura had $50 with her so there was enough money and nothing left over when she left the bowling alley.

To solve this problem, one should round either to the tenths place, or to the nearest dollar.  can be rounded to ,  to ,  to , and  to . When one adds up the estimated costs, it yields about .

In this problem, the costs of the items can be rounded to either the nearest dollar, or the nearest ten cents. 

 and  can be rounded to  and , respectively. 

 can be rounded to , and  can be rounded to .

When the new, estimated costs of the items are added, the sum is , which is between  and  dollars.

First, add up all of the values:

Then, decide which of the answer choices approximates this value. Our answer is between  and .

Another way to solve this problem is to round the four values to their nearest whole numbers and then sum those rounded values:

To find the difference, you must subtract. But first you must add the two amounts he spent at the mall:

Now subtract. Line up the numbers vertically. Remember to use the rules of borrowing to subtract.

Henry now has $422.48 in his bank account.

Since the question is asking how much money did Mark have left over, we need to subtract the cost of each item he bought from $20.

There are two ways of solving this problem:

• We can add up the cost of all the ingredients and then subtract the total cost from $20.00

• We can subtract the cost of each item from $20.00. Note, if we choose to solve the problem this way, we must follow order of operations and go from left to right     

In order to find out how much the third frame costs, we need to subtract the cost of the first two frames ($15 and $25) from the total amount ($60).

There are two ways to subtract the cost of the first two frames from the total amount:

Method 1

We can subtract the total amount spent on the first two frames from $60

Remember to follow Order of Operations (PEMDAS) and add the numbers in parenthesis first.

The cost of the third frame was $20

Method 2

We can subtract the cost of each frame from $60

The cost of the third frame was $20

If Larry gives Jon a $10 bill to pay him back for $5.75, Jon will need to give Larry back .

If Jon gives the change in quarters, he will give him  quarters.

If Betty has  in her wallet and buys a sandwich that costs , the best way to determine how much money is left in her wallet is to subtract  from . 

An easy way to do this is to first subtract  and . This results in: . 

Next,  should be subtracted from . This results in: 

Therefore, Betty will have  left in her wallet. 

1. Find the equation from this scenario:

Since Bobby makes $12 an hour, you know that your slope is 12 because his total pay will be the $12 multiplied by the number of hours he worked.

Add the $5 daily bonus Bobby makes, which is your y-intercept in this equation.

Total = $12(hours) + $5

2. Find his total pay for 5 hours using the above equation:

$65
