Question

Stamps can be brought in a book of 20. how many books will a customer need to mail 50 invitations

Answer 1

Answer:

3 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that you cannot buy a partial book of stamps, you would have to buy a surplus in order to obtain (at least) 50 stamps. That is because 50 is not a multiple of 20.

In theory you would need 2.5 books of stamps, but that half-book should be counted and rounded up to three. You wouldn't have sufficient stamps if you buy only 2 books.

Answer 2

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do to figure this out is divide your 50 invitations by twenty stamps because there is 20 stamps in one booklet. 50 divided by 20=2.5
