Yen bought a windbreaker for $21. She also bought a ring which cost 5 times as much as the windbreaker.
- How much less did the windbreaker cost than the ring?
- How much did she spend altogether?
(a)
Price of the windbreaker = 1 u = $21
Price of ring = 5 u
Price of the ring
= 5 x 21
= $105
Amount that windbreaker costs less than the ring
= 105 - 21
= $84
(b)
Total amount that Yen spent
= 21 + 105
= $126
Answer(s): (a) $84; (b) $126
