Zoe goes to the store to buy soda and pizza for herself and her 5 family members. Each bottle of soda costs half a dollar and each slice of pizza costs $1. Before she leaves her house she takes just enough money to pay for her purchase. How much money did Zoe take?
How many people are going to eat pizza and soda? ** Zoe is going to buy pizza and soda for 5 people + 1 person = <<5+1=6>>6 people.
How much will Zoe pay for 6 sodas? ** For 6 sodas, Zoe will pay 6 sodas * $0.5/soda = $<<6*0.5=3>>3
How much will Zoe pay for 6 slices of pizza? ** For 6 slices of pizza, she will pay 6 slices * $1/slice = $<<6*1=6>>6
How much did Zoe pay? ** Adding the price of the soda and pizza, Zoe paid $3 + $6 = $<<3+6=9>>9
