Q:

- HAM & CHEESE How much more doesthe ham and cheese omelet cost than thecheese omelet?​

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:$1.40 moreStep-by-step explanation:Let's say:A costs $zandB costs $yA is more expensive than B. That means z is greater than y. When we will be asked to find HOW MUCH MORE A costs than B, we will have to subtract the smaller dollar value (which is y) FROM the larger dollar value (which is z).So, we would say A costs more than B by ($z - $y).Similarly, in this problem, see attached image, the HAM AND CHEESE costs MORE ($4.95) than the CHEESE ONLY ($3.55). How much more??To find this, we subtract smaller value (3.55) from the larger value (4.95). Thus we have:[tex]4.95-3.55=1.40[/tex]Ham and cheese omelet costs $1.40 more than cheese omelet.
