Carmen bought $8 of corn. Carmen bought 24 wars of corn but 6 ears of corn cost $2. 24 divided by 6 is 4. Which means Carmen bought 4 sets of 6 ears of corn. As Carmen bought four sets of 6 ears of corn, you multiply 4 times the $2 to get your price, which is $8. Ending with the solution that Carmen spent $8.
