Maya and her two sisters love to go to the movies with both of their parents. But, going to the movies costs $9 for each person. So, this Friday they all decide to stay home and buy a movie online for $19. How much money does Maya's family save by watching a movie at home instead of going to the theater?

lilcutie2:

so they spend $27 at the movies so then 27 minus 19

TETSXPREMEE:

simsharrison:

Ok I just did the math: 5 (the people) x 9 (tickets) = 45 45 - 19 = 26 so $26 is how much they save, $26 is correct.
