Answer 1

Answer:

4 umbrellas

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Umbrellas              Total Money

                1                                            $12                

                2                                           $24

                3                                           $36

                4                                           $48

She can't go over $48 because $48 + $12 is $60, which is more than she has ($54). So the max amount of umbrellas she can buy is 4.
