Sure, let's walk through the math problem step-by-step:
1. Initial Statement:
You start with an initial amount of money which is [tex]$23.
2. Number of Bagels:
You are buying a total of 5 bagels.
3. Cost Per Bagel:
Each bagel costs $[/tex]3.
4. Calculation of Money Spent on Bagels:
To find out how much money you spent on bagels, multiply the number of bagels by the cost of each bagel:
[tex]\[
\text{Total money spent on bagels} = \text{Number of bagels} \times \text{Cost per bagel}
\][/tex]
Plug in the given values:
[tex]\[
\text{Total money spent on bagels} = 5 \times 3 = 15
\][/tex]
5. Calculation of Money Left:
Now, subtract the total money spent on bagels from the initial amount of money to find how much you have left:
[tex]\[
\text{Money left} = \text{Initial amount of money} - \text{Total money spent on bagels}
\][/tex]
Plug in the values:
[tex]\[
\text{Money left} = 23 - 15 = 8
\][/tex]
6. Conclusion:
Therefore, the total amount of money spent on bagels is [tex]$15, and you have $[/tex]8 left.
The final result is:
- Total money spent on bagels: [tex]$15
- Money left: $[/tex]8
