Over the weekend, Mrs. Kingston sold slices of cake at a bake sale fundraiser for her son's soccer team. Each cake was cut into eight slices. On the first day of the sale, she sold 2 1/4 chocolate cakes, and 2 3/8 caramel cakes. On the second day, she sold 3/4 of a chocolate cake and 3 1/2 caramel cakes.
Which statement tells the total number of cakes she sold and explains how the total can be calculated?
Responses
A First, find the least common multiple and change only the denominators: 2 1/8 + 2 3/8 + 3/8 + 3 1/8 = 7 8/8. Next, simplify: 7 88 = 8.First, find the least common multiple and change only the denominators: 2 1 8 + 2 3 8 + 3 8 + 3 1 8 = 7 8 8 . Next, simplify: 7 8 8 = 8.
B Change the fractions to make denominators common, and then add: 2 28 + 2 38 + 68 + 3 48 = 7 158. Next, simplify: 7 158 = 8 78.Change the fractions to make denominators common, and then add: 2 2 8 + 2 3 8 + 6 8 + 3 4 8 = 7 15 8 . Next, simplify: 7 15 8 = 8 7 8 .
C Change the numerators to 3 to make them common, and then add: 2 312 + 2 38 + 34 + 3 36 = 7 330. Next, simplify: 7 330 = 7 110.Change the numerators to 3 to make them common, and then add: 2 3 12 + 2 3 8 + 3 4 + 3 3 6 = 7 3 30 . Next, simplify: 7 3 30 = 7 1 10 .
D Add across the numerators and denominators first: 14 + 38 + 34 + 12 = 818. Next, add whole numbers 2 + 2 + 3 = 7, then combine: 7 818

Mary has $500 in her account. She makes a $350 withdrawal, deposits $100, and then gets charged a $20 fee. How much does she have in her account?
Responses
A $180$180
B $230$230
C $290$290
D $340

C $290$290
D $340
Mary has $500 in her account. She makes a $350 withdrawal, so she has $500 - $350 = $150 remaining. She then deposits $100, which brings her total to $150 + $100 = $250. After getting charged a $20 fee, she will have $250 - $20 = $230 in her account.
Therefore, the correct response is B. $230.
Therefore, the correct response is B. $230.
