Bobby takes 4 of his friends bowling over the holiday weekend. Each game per person costs $3.50 and shoe rentals cost $3 per person. If they each play 2 games, how much did Bobby spend for the entire group that evening?
4(3.00 + 2*3.50) = ___
oops. did you catch my typo?
To calculate how much Bobby spent for the entire group, we need to find out the total cost of games and shoe rentals for each person and then multiply it by the number of people.
First, let's calculate the cost of games for one person:
The cost of one game is $3.50, and each person plays 2 games.
So, the cost of games for one person is 2 games * $3.50 per game = $<<2*3.50=7>>7.
Now, let's calculate the cost of shoe rentals for one person:
The cost of shoe rentals for one person is $3.
Adding the cost of games and the cost of shoe rentals gives us the total cost for one person: $7 + $3 = $10.
Since Bobby is taking 4 friends bowling, there are a total of 4 + 1 (Bobby himself) = 5 people in the group.
Multiplying the total cost per person by the number of people gives us the total cost for the entire group: $10 per person * 5 people = $<<10*5=50>>50.
Therefore, Bobby spent $50 for the entire group's evening of bowling.
