Question

Bill is golfing with three friends and can either buy generic golf tees that are packaged by the dozen or the higher quality Aeroflight tees that come by the pair. What is the minimum number of packages of Aeroflight tees Bill must purchase to ensure that he has at least 10 golf tees for each member of his foursome, if he will buy no more than 2 packages of the generic golf tees?

Answer 1

Answer: at lease 8 packages of Aero flight tees.

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 10 golf tees for each member of his foursome = total of at least 4*10 = 40 tees.

2 packages of the generic golf tees, that are packaged by the dozen = 2*12 = 24 tees.

So, Bill must buy at least 16 Aero tees.

This means he must buy 8 pairs
