A group of 5 friends went to the movies. A bag of popcorn costs $2.99. How much will it take cost to get one bag of popcorn for each friend

this one is so simple add $2.99 5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

14.95

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess you are assuming that one person is getting the popcorn for all 5 people including themselves. It's not worded the best way I've ever seen but that is the assumption I will make

So you multiply 5 * 2.99 = 14.95

Only for interest's sake, you could solve the question by multiplying by 5 * 3 dollars

5 * 3 = 15 dollars

You take off 5 cents because the actual cost is 2.99 and that is 1 cent below 3 dollars.

15.00 - 05 = 14.95  or a nickel less than 15 dollars.

1/5^2 = 7.56/45
