Question:Wendy went to the dentist for a cleaning, two fillings, and a tooth extraction. The dentist charges $70 for a cleaning and $120 for a filling. Wendy’s dentist bill was five times the cost of a filling. What did Wendy pay for the tooth extraction?
Answer:Wendy’s dentist bill was 5 * $120 = $<<5*120=600>>600.
She got two fillings at a cost of 2 * $120 = $<<2*120=240>>240.
Thus, Wendy paid $600 - $240 - $70 = $<<600-240-70=290>>290 for the tooth extraction.
