School coaches bought sports equipment. Coach A bought ten new basketballs for $29 each, while coach B bought 14 new baseballs for $2.50 each and a baseball bat for $18. How much more did coach A spend than coach B?
Coach A spent $29x 10=$<T>multiply(29, 10)=290 for the 10 basketballs.
Coach B spent $2.50x14=$<T>multiply(2.5, 14)=35.0 for the 14 baseballs.
So, Coach B spent a total of $35+$18=$<T>add(35, 18)=53 for the baseballs and a bat.
Thus, Coach A spent $290-$53=$<T>subtract(290, 53)=237 more than coach B
