Simply add up the amount of each purchased item then divide by the total of the purchased items your answer is 8.98

4.99+12.99+8.95= 26.93
26.93/3= 8.976666

Answer:

8.98   ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount spent by Troy = 4.99

Amount spent by Rico = 12.99

And, the amount spent by Mario = 8.95

∵ Total amount spent = 4.99 + 12.99 + 8.95 = 26.93

Also, total number of boys = 3,

Hence, the average amount that each boy spent

\(=\frac{\text{Total spending}}{3}\)

\(=\frac{26.93}{3}\)

\(\approx 8.98\)
