Question

You were billed $28.50 for additional data usage on your cell phone at a rate of $9 per gigabyte. Three choices are correct ways to calculate the additional gigabytes, g, that you used. Which choice is NOT?

Answer 1

Answer:

b.) 9/g = 28.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) 9g = 28.5

b.) 9/g = 28.5

c.) 28.5 = 9 x g

d.) 28.5/9 = g

Total billing = $28.50

Rate = $9 per gigabyte

Calculate the additional gigabytes, g, that you used.

Additional gigabyte used, g = Total billing / Rate

g = $28.50 / $9

9g = 28.50

28.50 = 9 × g

g = 28.50 / 9

Option b.) 9/g = 28.5 is the incorrect way to calculate the additional gigabytes, g, that you used.
