Question

LeBron goes to the store with six dollars and buys four packs of gum. James goes to the store with five dollars and buys two packs of gum. If each pack of gum costs $p$ dollars, what is the expression that represents how much money LeBron and James have together after buying gum?

Answer 1

G = the cost of one pack of gum
LeBron : 6 - 4g
James : 5 - 2g

what they both have after buying gum..
6 - 4g + 5 - 2g = 11 - 6g

Answer 2

P is the cost of each packet of gum.

money left with LeBron = 6 - 4p

money left with James = 5 - 2p

total money left with LeBron and James
= 6 - 4p + 5 - 2p
= 11 - 6p
