Certainly! Let's address the question Olivia has with her bagel purchase in a detailed, step-by-step manner.
1. Initial Amount of Money:
- Olivia starts with [tex]$23. This is her initial amount of money.
2. Number of Bagels:
- Olivia buys a total of 5 bagels.
3. Cost per Bagel:
- Each bagel costs $[/tex]3.
4. Total Money Spent on Bagels:
- To find out how much money Olivia spends on bagels, we multiply the number of bagels by the cost per bagel:
[tex]\[
\text{Money Spent} = \text{Number of Bagels} \times \text{Cost per Bagel}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Money Spent} = 5 \times 3 = 15
\][/tex]
- Olivia spends [tex]$15 on bagels.
5. Amount of Money Left:
- To calculate how much money Olivia has left after buying the bagels, we subtract the money spent from her initial amount of money:
\[
\text{Money Left} = \text{Initial Amount of Money} - \text{Money Spent}
\]
\[
\text{Money Left} = 23 - 15 = 8
\]
- Olivia has $[/tex]8 left.
Hence, Olivia initially had [tex]$23, she spent $[/tex]15 on five bagels, and she has $8 left after the purchase.
