Question

Abit is planning a birthday party for his granddad. He bought a cake for $18\$18$18dollar sign, 18. He also wants to buy some balloons, which are $4\$4$4dollar sign, 4 each. Abit has $35\$35$35dollar sign, 35 to spend all together. How much money will Abit have left after he buys the cake and as many balloons as possible?

Answer 1

Answer:

$1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Budget = $35

Cake Spent = $18

Remaining Money = 35 - 18 = $17

Since, each balloon is worth $4, to find how many balloons he will get with remaining money ($17), we divide the the remaining money by price of each balloon:

17/4 = 4.25

We can't have fractional balloons, so Abit can get 4 balloons, MAXIMUM.

4 balloons cost = $4 per balloon * 4 = $16

So, from $17 if he spends $16 for balloons, he will have left:

$17 - $16 = $1.00
