Sure, let’s solve the question step-by-step.
Given the initial conditions:
- Initial amount of money: [tex]$23
- Number of bagels bought: 5
- Cost per bagel: $[/tex]3
First, we need to determine how much money was spent on bagels.
1. Calculate the total cost of the bagels:
- Number of bagels = 5
- Cost per bagel = [tex]$3
Using multiplication, we find:
\[
\text{Money spent on bagels} = 5 \times 3 = 15 \text{ dollars}
\]
2. Calculate how much money is left after buying the bagels:
- Initial amount of money = $[/tex]23
- Money spent on bagels = [tex]$15
Using subtraction, we find:
\[
\text{Money left} = 23 - 15 = 8 \text{ dollars}
\]
Thus, the amount of money spent on bagels is $[/tex]15, and the amount of money left after buying the bagels is $8.
