tom and jerry at a state fair. They each got a ticket for the merry go round. Tom got a funnel cake, and jerry got a churro. Tom had a certificate for 5$voff the cost. Jerry paid the rest which came for 10$. Each Merry Go Round ticket was 4$ and a funnel cake was $2.25. What was the cost for the churro
The cost of the Merry Go Round ticket is $4 and the cost of the funnel cake is $2.25. Tom had a $5 off certificate, so the cost for him would be $4 (ticket) + $2.25 (funnel cake) - $5 (discount) = $1.25.
Since Tom's total cost was $1.25, and Jerry paid the remaining amount, the cost for the churro would be $10 (Jerry's payment) - $1.25 (Tom's cost) = $8.75.
Therefore, the cost for the churro was $8.75.
Let's calculate the cost for the churro.
Tom had a certificate for $5 off the cost, and Jerry paid the remaining $10.
The total cost for both Tom and Jerry would then be $5 off + $10 = $15.
Each Merry Go Round ticket costs $4 and the funnel cake costs $2.25.
So, the cost of the Merry Go Round tickets and the funnel cake is $4 + $4 + $2.25 = $10.25.
To find the cost of the churro, we subtract the cost of the tickets and the funnel cake from the total cost: $15 - $10.25 = $4.75.
Therefore, the cost for the churro is $4.75.
To find the cost of the churro, we need to subtract the cost of the funnel cake and Tom's discount from the total payment made by Jerry.
We know that the total payment made by Jerry was $10. Tom had a funnel cake, which costs $2.25, and he had a certificate for $5 off the cost. So, the cost of the funnel cake after applying Tom's discount is $2.25 - $5 = -$2.75. However, a negative value for the cost doesn't make sense in this context, so we'll consider it as $0.
Now, to find the cost of the churro, we subtract the cost of the funnel cake from the total payment made by Jerry: $10 - $0 = $10.
Therefore, the cost for the churro was $10.
