Respuesta :

Answer:

$3.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

One cup of lemonade is sold at 45 cents.

Total money made = $17.10

Number of cups of lemonade sold can be found by dividing the total money made with the sale price of one cup of lemonade.

Number of cups of lemonade sold = [tex]\frac{\$18.10}{45\ cents} = \frac{\$18.10}{\$0.45} =38[/tex]

For each cup sold, 10 cents are donated.

Total money donated = 38 [tex]\times[/tex] 10 = 380 cents = $3.80

Therefore, the answer is:

Total money donated by Mary is $3.80
