Tim spent $50.00 on Chinese take-out. 80% of the cost went to 4 entrees. The rest of the money went to 2 appetizers that each cost the same amount. How much was the price of a single appetizer?

How much did Tim spend on entrees? ** He spent $50.00 and 80% of the meal went to entrees so he spent 50*.80 = $40.00 on entrees
How much did Tim spend on appetizers? ** He spent $50.00 and $40.00 went to entrees so that leaves $50 - $40 = $<<50-40=10.00>>10.00 for appetizers
How much did each appetizer cost? ** Each appetizer costs the same amount and he spent $10.00 all together so each appetizer is $10/2 = $<<10/2=5.00>>5.00
