Answer:

We took $ 24 to the movies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total money be

On movies = Half of the money =[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

On popcorn =  [tex]\frac{x}{4}[/tex]

on candy = $2

On soda = $3

total money spent =  [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] +[tex]\frac{x}{4}[/tex]+ 2+3+1

         x   =  [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] +[tex]\frac{x}{4}[/tex]+ 2+3+1

x- [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] -[tex]\frac{x}{4}[/tex] = 6

[tex]\frac{x}{1}[/tex] -[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{x}{4}[/tex]  =6

    [tex]\frac{4x-2x-x}{4}  = 6\\          \frac{x}{4} =6\\x =24[/tex]
