Olivia bought a windbreaker for $18. She also bought a bracelet which cost 6 times as much as the windbreaker.
- How much less did the windbreaker cost than the bracelet?
- How much did she spend altogether?
(a)
Price of the windbreaker = 1 u = $18
Price of bracelet = 6 u
Price of the bracelet
= 6 x 18
= $108
Amount that windbreaker costs less than the bracelet
= 108 - 18
= $90
(b)
Total amount that Olivia spent
= 18 + 108
= $126
Answer(s): (a) $90; (b) $126
