Let's solve the given problem in a structured manner:
We start with an initial amount of money and we need to figure out how much is spent on bagels and how much is left afterwards.
1. Initial Amount of Money:
You begin with [tex]$23.
2. Number of Bagels Bought:
You purchase 5 bagels.
3. Cost per Bagel:
Each bagel costs $[/tex]3.
To find out the total amount of money spent on bagels:
4. Calculate Total Money Spent on Bagels:
Money Spent = Number of Bagels × Cost per Bagel
= 5 bagels × [tex]$3/bagel
= $[/tex]15
Now, to determine how much money is left after buying the bagels:
5. Calculate Money Left:
Money Left = Initial Amount of Money - Money Spent
= [tex]$23 - $[/tex]15
= [tex]$8
So, the total money spent on bagels is $[/tex]15 and the money left after the purchase is [tex]$8.
Hence, the detailed solution gives us the following results:
- Money spent on bagels: $[/tex]15
- Money left: $8
