Jacob and Wesley went to the movies. Patty bought the two movie tickets for $7.35 each. Wesley bought two buckets of popcorn at $5.60 each. How much more money did Jacob spend than Wesley?
To find out how much more money Jacob spent than Wesley, we need to calculate the total amount of money each person spent.
First, let's calculate the total cost of the movie tickets that Patty bought for Jacob and Wesley. Each movie ticket costs $7.35, so the total cost of the movie tickets is 2 * $7.35 = $14.70.
Next, we need to calculate the total cost of the popcorn that Wesley bought. Each bucket of popcorn costs $5.60, and he bought 2 buckets, so the total cost of the popcorn is 2 * $5.60 = $11.20.
Now, let's calculate the difference between the total amount of money Jacob spent and the total amount of money Wesley spent:
Jacob spent $14.70 on movie tickets, while Wesley spent $11.20 on popcorn. Therefore, the difference in money spent is $14.70 - $11.20 = $3.50.
Therefore, Jacob spent $3.50 more than Wesley.
