Multi-step Money Word Problem 1Talia is at the mall with her friends. She buys a DVD for {$10.99}. Then she buys a new pair of earrings for {$8.25}. Lastly, she gets her mother a bouquet of flowers for {$9.50}. If she starts with {$50}, how much does she have after she goes shopping?

• Step 2: Ask: What is this question asking me to do? (How much will Talia have after she goes shopping?).

• Step 3: First, add the total amount that she spent ($10.99 + $8.25 + $9.50 = $28.74)

Multi-step Money Word Problem 2Josiah is buying {5} packs of gum that cost {$1.50} each. He wants to share his gum with {two} friends. He asks his friends to pay him for their share. Including Josiah, how much does each person spend on gum?

• Step 1: Underline operation key terms and {bracket} important numbers. • Step 2: Ask: What is this question asking me to do? (How much did each person spend

on gum?)• Step 3: First, multiply the number of packs of gum (5) by the cost of each pack ($1.50) 5 x $1.50 = $7.50(5 x $1) = $5.00($0.50 x 5) = $2.50($5.00 + $2.50) = $7.50 • Step 4: Then, divide the total amount of the gum ($7.50) by the number of people (3).

One way to do this is to convert $7.50 into cents. This gives 750 cents which we then divide by 3750 cents ÷ 3 = 250 cents. We then convert the cents back into dollars: 250 cents = $2.50

• Step 5: Write the answer. Each friend spent $2.50.
