Answer 1

Let's work through each question one by one:

1. **What is the total cost for one soda?**
- Four sodas cost $4.67.
- To find the cost of one soda, divide the total cost by the number of sodas:
\[
\text{Cost of one soda} = \frac{4.67}{4} = 1.1675
\]
- Rounded to two decimal places, this is approximately $1.17.
- **Answer: $1.17**

2. **What is the total cost of your snack purchase?**
- Snickers bar: $0.75
- Bag of chips: $1.25
- Hot dog: $2.23
- To find the total cost, add these amounts together:
\[
0.75 + 1.25 + 2.23 = 4.23
\]
- **Answer: $4.23**

3. **How many ounces did your friend eat?**
- A bag of popcorn contains 13 1/3 ounces. This can be converted to an improper fraction:
\[
13 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{40}{3} \text{ ounces}
\]
- If your friend eats 1/4 of the bag, then:
\[
\text{Ounces eaten} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{40}{3} = \frac{40}{12} = \frac{10}{3} = 3 \frac{1}{3} \text{ ounces}
\]
- **Answer: 3 1/3 ounces**

4. **How many total bags of candy did you eat altogether?**
- You and three friends (4 people total) each ate 1/3 of a bag of candy. Therefore:
\[
\text{Total bags} = 4 \text{ people} \times \frac{1}{3} \text{ bag/person} = \frac{4}{3} \text{ bags} = 1 \frac{1}{3} \text{ bags}
\]
- **Answer: 1 1/3 bags**

Here’s a summary of the answers:
1. $1.17
2. $4.23
3. 3 1/3 ounces
4. 1 1/3 bags
