Question

each. Lia bought popcorn and a slushy for $8.50.
Together they bought a slushy and nachos $12.00. How much money did they spend in all together?
3.00
26.50

Answer 1

To find out how much Lia and James spent in total, we can break down their expenses:

1. Tickets for 2 people:

   • Tickets: \(2 \times 3.00 = 6.00\)

2. Lia's popcorn and slushy:

   • Popcorn and slushy: \(8.50\)

3. Slushy and nachos they bought together:

   • Slushy and nachos: \(12.00\)

Now, we can add all these expenses together:

\[ \text{Total} = \text{Tickets} + \text{Lia's popcorn and slushy} + \text{Slushy and nachos} \] \[ \text{Total} = 6.00 + 8.50 + 12.00 \] \[ \text{Total} = 6.00 + 8.50 = 14.50 \] \[ \text{Total} = 14.50 + 12.00 = 26.50 \]

So, the total amount of money they spent together is $26.50.
