Answer: 6 donuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Cost of donut = $1.50
Cost of cookies = $0.50
Amount to spend = $15
Total number of donut and cookies to buy must not be less than 12
Number of cookies purchased = 10
Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:
Amount spent on cookies = (10 × $0.50) = $5
Amount left to spend = ($15 - $5) = $10
Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:
Amount left / cost per donut
= $10 / $1.50
= $6.66
Hence, maximum number of donut would be 6
