Solution

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.

Therefore, Sophia bought desserts at the lowest price.
