Explanation:

Step1: Calculate Yasmin's total cost

First find cost per jar at Central Market: $\frac{\$3.00}{5} = \$0.60$. Then total for 10 jars: $10 \times \$0.60 = \$6.00$

Step2: Calculate Nadia's total cost

Valley Market's price per jar is $\$0.59$. Total for 10 jars: $10 \times \$0.59 = \$5.90$

Step3: Compare total costs

$\$5.90 < \$6.00$, so Nadia spent less.

Step4: Find the difference in cost

$\$6.00 - \$5.90 = \$0.10$

Answer:

Nadia spent less money.
She spent $\$0.10$ less.
