(1 point) Responses $5.00 $5.00 $5.25 $5.25 $2.50 $2.50 $7.25

Answer 1

Let's work through this step by step.

First, let's find the total cost of Ella's ticket and snow cone. The ticket is $5 and the snow cone is $3.50, so the total cost is $5 + $3.50 = $<<5+3.5=8.50>>8.50.

Next, we subtract the $6 discount that Ella had, so Ella paid $8.50 - $6 = $<<8.50-6=2.50>>2.50.

Since Margaret paid the rest, which was $12.75 in total, we can subtract Ella's cost from that: $12.75 - $2.50 = $<<12.75-2.5=10.25>>10.25.

Therefore, the cost of the cotton candy was $10.25.
