The correct option is B Sophia
Jasmine bought desserts for 10 and 12 dollars.
Total money = 10 + 12 = 22 dollars
Sophia bought desserts for 8 and 13 dollars.
Total money = 8 + 13 = 21 dollars
Andrea bought desserts for 7 and 16 dollars.
Total money = 7 + 16 = 23 dollars
Jessica bought desserts for 11 and 14 dollars.
Total money = 11 + 14 = 25 dollars
Let us compare 22, 21, 23, and 25 dollars in a place value chart.
The tens digits of the numbers are same.
Let us compare the ones digits.
On comparing the ones digits of the numbers, we find that 1 is the smallest digit.
Hence, 21 is the lowest among all the numbers.
