Anna bought a jacket for $16. She also bought a bracelet which cost 6 times as much as the jacket.
- How much less did the jacket cost than the bracelet?
- How much did she spend altogether?
(a)
Price of the jacket = 1 u = $16
Price of bracelet = 6 u
Price of the bracelet
= 6 x 16
= $96
Amount that jacket costs less than the bracelet
= 96 - 16
= $80
(b)
Total amount that Anna spent
= 16 + 96
= $112
Answer(s): (a) $80; (b) $112
