Question: Monika went out for the day and spent some money. She went to the mall and spent $250. Then, she went to the movies and watched 3 movies back to back that each cost $24. Then she stopped by the farmer's market on her way home and got 20 bags of beans at $1.25/bag. How much money did Monika spend throughout her day?
Solution:
Monika spent 24*3 = 72 dollars at the movies.
Monika spent 20*1.25 = 25 dollars at the farmers market.
Throughout her day, Monika spent 250+72+25 = 347 dollars.
Answer: 347
