Certainly! Let's delve into the step-by-step solution for the problem at hand based on the provided data:
We are given the following initial details:
- The initial amount of money available is 23 units.
- The number of bagels to be purchased is 5.
- The cost per bagel is 3 units.
From these details, we need to determine two things:
1. The total amount of money spent on the bagels.
2. The amount of money remaining after purchasing the bagels.
To find the total amount spent on the bagels:
[tex]\[ \text{Total money spent} = \text{Number of bagels} \times \text{Cost per bagel} \][/tex]
Given:
- Number of bagels = 5
- Cost per bagel = 3
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ \text{Total money spent} = 5 \times 3 = 15 \][/tex]
Therefore, the total money spent on purchasing the bagels is 15 units.
Next, we calculate the amount of money left after purchasing the bagels:
[tex]\[ \text{Money left} = \text{Initial amount of money} - \text{Total money spent} \][/tex]
Given:
- Initial amount of money = 23
- Total money spent = 15
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ \text{Money left} = 23 - 15 = 8 \][/tex]
Therefore, the amount of money remaining after purchasing the bagels is 8 units.
In summary, the total money spent on the bagels is 15 units, and the remaining money after the purchase is 8 units.
