You need to say how much the ice creams cost. Is that 2 ice creams each or one each?

---

One each

Answer 1

If the cost of each ice cream is $x, then 10-2x is the change in dollars.

If x=$2.35 then the change is 10-2×2.35=10-4.70=$5.30.

Comments

Like if ice cream cost $2.35 each, then the resulting change is in dollars.

Wow that is too expensive for just 1 icecream cone?
