Question

Jones spent $4.31 each on two tickets to a movie theater she also borrowed a movie for $8.49 how much money in total did Jerome spend on movies

Answer 1

From this problem, we don't have any information on how much Jerome spent.

We can only determine how much Jones spent. She paid 2 times $4.31 = $8.62 on movie tickets. Jones also spent $8.49 on borrowing a movie. Jones therefore spent $8.62 + $8.49 = $17.11 on movies.
