Question: Anna's mom gave her $10.00 to buy anything she wanted from the candy store. Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum for $1.00 each, 5 chocolate bars at $1 each and 2 large candy canes for $0.50 each. How much money did Anna have left?
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
Anna bought 3 packs of chewing gum that were $1 each for a total of 3 * 1 = $3. Anna bought 5 chocolate bars that were $1 each for a total of 5 * 1 = $5. Anna bought 2 large candy canes that were $.50 each for a total of 2 * .50 = $1. The total amount spent was $3 + $5 + $1 = $9.00. Anna had $10 to start and spent $9.00 so she had $10 - $9.00 = $1.00 left.
So the answer is 1.
