Answer:

each book costs $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of each book be $x

cost of buying 8 books = $8x

It is given that with an original amount of $116, after buying 8 books, he had $12 left over. Hence,

$8x + $12 = $116   (dropping the $ signs)

8x + 12 = 116

8x = 116 - 12

8x = 104

x = 13  (each book costs $13)

Answer:

he possibly spent $13 on order to end up with $12 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) look. at the number 116 you can use a calculator.

2) if 14 only leaves you with nothing you take it away

3) add 13 + 8X that should give you 104

4). substract 116-104 your total should be $12

I hope I helped you.

Svetllana [295]

The complete question is

Zach has 3/4 hour to play video games. it takes him 1/12 hour to set up the system. Each round of his favorite game takes 1/6 hour. How many rounds can he play

we know that

1) Zach has 3/4 hour to play video games

Convert to minutes

1\ hour=60\ minutes

(3/4)*60=45\ minutes

2) It takes him 1/12 hour to set up the system

Convert to minutes

(1/12)*60=5\ minutes

3) Find time available to play video games

45\ minutes-5\ minutes=40\ minutes

4) Each round of his favorite game takes 1/6 hour

Convert to minutes

(1/6)*60=10\ minutes

5) Divide the time available to play video games by the time each round of his favorite game

40/10=4\ round

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

4\ round
