Four math questions :\

1. Maria and Edwin have $23.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 25% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $26.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if she has enough to purchase the book, Maria takes 25% of $26.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. She takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Edwin takes 75% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Maria correct? Is Edwin correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences and show your work.

2. Tom, Lisa, and Jane are competing in a cooking competition. They all used different amounts of sugar from a can containing 4 pounds of sugar.

• Tom used 13% of the total sugar in the can.
• Lisa used 0.6 pound of the total sugar in the can.
• Jane used 0.12 of the total sugar in the can.

Who used the greatest amount of sugar from the can? Show your work and explain your answer in words.

3. The youth group is going on a trip to the state fair. The trip costs $64. Included in that price is $12 for a concert ticket and the cost of 2 passes, one for the rides and one for the game booths. Each of the passes costs the same price. Write an equation representing the cost of the trip, and determine the price of one pass. Solve your equation by showing your work and steps.

Try to separate the questions next time

For the first one, they are both right, they are just taking different approaches to it but it still adds to the same thing
