Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Let's reread the question.

"Reese is selling lemonade at the parade. He gets to keep 50% of the money he collects."

Now that we read this, we know that the final amount of money he will earn will be half of what he sells his lemonade for.

"A large lemonade is $6.00 and a small lemonade is $2.00."

Now that we know the pricing, all we need to do is to divide the prices by two (in half) to find out how much money Reese will earn.

6.00/2= 3.00

2.00/2= 1.00

After dividing, we know that Reese will earn $3.00 for selling a large lemonade and $1.00 for selling a small one.

Hope this helped! :)
