Jack is a soccer player. He needs to buy two pairs of socks and a pair of soccer shoes. Each pair of socks cost $9.50, and the shoes cost $92. Jack has $40. How much more money does Jack need?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
The total cost of two pairs of socks is $9.50 x 2 = $19. The total cost of the socks and the shoes is $19 + $92 = $111. Jack need $111 - $40 = $71 more.
Thus, the answer is 71.
