Question

Michelle had a $100. bill she wants to purchase paper pins ($20) and file covers ($20) and paper weights. each paper weight costs $10. how many paper weights can she purchase?

Answer 1

Hi!

100/10 = 10

If Michelle only buys paper weights, she can buy 10 of them with $100

Answer 2

Well I'm not exactly sure what it's asking but, if Michelle spends 40 bucks on paper pins and file covers, then she would have 60 bucks left to spend on paper weights. And 60 divided by 10 is 6. So Michelle can purchase 6 paper weights.



Hope this helps!
