Let's start by interpreting the question and determining what calculations we need to perform.
Here is a step-by-step detailed solution based on the given answer:
1. Initial Money and Bagels:
- We start with an initial amount of money, which is [tex]$23.
- The number of bagels to be purchased is 5.
- The cost of each bagel is $[/tex]3.
2. Calculate the Amount of Money Spent:
- To find out how much was spent 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]
- So, the total amount of money spent on bagels is [tex]$15.
3. Determine How Much Money is Left:
- To find out how much money is left after buying the bagels, we subtract the amount of money spent from the initial amount of money:
\[
\text{money_left} = \text{initial money} - \text{money spent}
\]
\[
\text{money_left} = 23 - 15 = 8
\]
- Therefore, the remaining amount of money is $[/tex]8.
Given these steps, the money spent on bagels is [tex]$15, and the money left after the purchase is $[/tex]8.
Thus, the final result matches our expectations:
- Money spent on bagels: [tex]$15
- Money left: $[/tex]8
