[Question]: Christian and Sue wanted to get a $50.00 bottle of perfume for their mom for her birthday. Christian had $5.00 saved up and Sue had $7.00. Christian then mowed 4 of his neighbors' yards, charging $5.00 each, while Sue walked 6 dogs for her neighbors, charging $2.00 per dog. How much more money will Christian and Sue need to make in order to buy the bottle of perfume for their mom?
[Answer]:
Christian just mowed 4 yards at $5.00 each so he made 4 * 5 = $20.00. Sue just walked 6 dogs at $2.00 each so she made 6 * 2 = $12.00. Christian had $5.00 saved and just made $20.00 while Sue had $7.00 saved and just made $12.00 so together they had 5 + 20 + 7 + 12 = $44. The perfume cost $50.00 and they had $44.00 so they needed to make 50 - 44 = $6.00 more dollars.
So the answer is 6.
