Wendy already owns 4 necklaces, and additional necklaces are priced at 1 for a dollar. How

much money does Wendy need to spend on new necklaces in order to own a total of 26

necklaces?

She needs to spend $22.

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 4 necklaces. In order to have 26, she needs to buy more necklaces. How many does she need to buy?

We subtract 4 from 26.

26 - 4 = 22

She needs to buy 22 necklaces to have a total of 26 necklaces.

Each necklace costs $1.

22 necklaces cost 22 times $1.

22 * $1 = $22

Answer: She needs to spend $22.
