Question

The soccer team sells 54 bagels with cream cheese for $2 each and 36 muffins for $1 each during a bake sale. The coach uses the bake sale money to buy socks for the 14 players at $6 a pair. How much money does the coach have left? Explain how you found your answer

A. $60

B.First, I found the total amount raised selling bagels with cream cheese and muffins: $2 × 54 = $108 Then, I found the total amount raised by selling muffins. $1 × 36 = $36.

C.I added the total amount raised from selling bagels with cream cheese to the total amount raised selling muffins. $108 + $36 = $144.

D.Then, I found the cost of the socks for the players: $6 ×14 = $84. Finally, I subtracted the cost of the socks from the total amount raised. $144 − $84 = $60.
