We already know from the given data that 6 pencils can be bought for 59 cents. We have to determine the number of pencils that can be bought for $2.95.
So
Price of 6 pencils = 59 cents.
Price of 1 pencil = (59/6) cents
= 9.83 cents
Now total amount in hand for buying pencils = $2.95
= 295 cents
Then the number of pencils that can be bought for 295 cents = (295/9.83)
= 30.01
So the maximum number of pencils that can be bought for $2.95 is 30 pencils.

Answer:
1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
- I can't really tell what the fraction you have is, I am assuming it is 2/14. If that is correct, simplify by finding a common number.
- Ask yourself, what can both be divided by? (Answer is 2)
- Knowing both simplify by 2, divide the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) by 2.
- You should get 1/7 (2/2 = 1 and 14/2 = 7)
- If you have any further questions on this topic please let me know. I would be glad to help anytime!
