Answer to Problem 4.1MPS
Total amount to be spent is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Cost of admission and transportation per person
Cost of lunch per person
There are 10 friends.
Formula Used:
According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
Calculation:
Given :
Cost of admission and transportation per person
Cost of lunch per person
Number of friends
As per the distributive property explained above, we have:
One side of the equation
Cost of lunch per person)
One side of the equation
Solving further, we have:
One side of the equation
One side of the equation
Now, other side of the equation
Other side of the equation
Solving further, we have:
Other side of the equation
Other side of the equation
Since, both the sides of the equation gives the same answer.
Thus, the answer is justified using the distributive property.
Conclusion:
Total amount to be spent is
