Daniel buys a magazine costing $0.85 and a pencil costing $0.50. He pays with a coupon that gives him $0.35 off. How much does he spend? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Daniel buys both magazine and pencil for $0.85 + $0.50 = $1.35. The coupon gives him a total cost of $1.35 - $0.35 = $1. So the final answer is 1.
