Q: Jackie's favorite cosmetic company was offering free shipping when you spent $50.00. Jackie ordered her favorite shampoo and conditioner that each cost $10.00 a bottle and 3 bottles of lotion that cost $6.00 each. How much more money does Jackie need to spend to be eligible for free shipping?
A: 12
Explain how we arrive at this answer:
Explanation: The shampoo and conditioner cost $10 each so 2 * $10 = $20.00. 3 bottles of lotion cost $6.00 each so 3 * $6 = $18.00. So far she has spent $20 + $18 = $38.00. You need to spend $50.00 for free shipping and she has spent $38.00 already so she needs to buy $50 - $38 = $12.00 more in products.
