<span>Let x be the number of songs downloaded.
Each song is $1.29; the total cost would be found by multiplying the cost by the number of songs, or 1.29x.
This cannot be more than 20, so we set this less than or equal to 20:
1.29x ≤ 20.

<u>To solve this, we divide both sides by 1.29: </u>
</span>\frac{1.29x}{1.29}<span> ≤ </span>\frac{20}{1.29}<span>;
x ≤15.5.

We <u>cannot download half of a song</u>, so we round this down to 15 (although the number rounds up mathematically, he would not have enough money to download 16 songs). This means he can download at most 15 songs.</span>

If x represents the number of downloads, you can write the inequality 1.29x = 20. Solving the inequality, you find that x is less than or equal to about 15.5. Since he can’t download part of a song, Joseph can download 15 or fewer songs.

What's wrong with the problem: 5pints times 1cup divided by 2 pints = 2.5cups
lys-0071 [83]
I don't really know how the table works, but there are two cups in a pint, so 5 pints * 0.5 pints would be 2.5 pints, and 2.5 pints divided by 2 pints would be 1.25 pints?
