Alright, students, let's walk through this step-by-step problem together!
1. Initial Information:
- You start with an initial amount of money, which is [tex]$23.
2. Number of Bagels Bought:
- You bought 5 bagels.
3. Cost per Bagel:
- The cost of each bagel is $[/tex]3.
4. Calculate Total Money Spent on Bagels:
- To find out the total amount spent on the bagels, you multiply the number of bagels by the price per bagel:
[tex]\[
\text{Total Money Spent} = 5 \, \text{bagels} \times 3 \, \text{dollars per bagel} = 15 \, \text{dollars}
\][/tex]
5. Calculate Remaining Money:
- To find out how much money you have left, you subtract the total money spent from your initial amount:
[tex]\[
\text{Remaining Money} = 23 \, \text{dollars} - 15 \, \text{dollars} = 8 \, \text{dollars}
\][/tex]
So, the total money spent on bagels is [tex]$15, and the remaining money you have is $[/tex]8.
This approach clearly shows how you can break down a problem into manageable steps and stay organized in solving it.
