You and a friend went to the movies. You spent half your money on tickets. Then you spent 1/4 of the money on popcorn, $2 on candy, and $3 on a soda. If you have $1 left, how much money did u take to the movies?

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the following represent:

\left\begin{array}{ccc}4x&=&OriginalMoney\\2x&=&SpentforMovieTickets\\x&=&SpentforPopcorn\end{array}\right

4x-2x-x-2-3=1\\x-5=1\\x=1+5\\x=6

Determine original money.

x=6\\(x=6)4\\4x=24
