Question

Zahir is going to the movies. The cost of a movie ticket is $10.50 and candy costs $3 for each box. He has a maximum of $20 to spend. How many boxes of candy can he buy?
b = # of boxes of candy he can buy

Answer 1

Answer:

3 boxes of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

$20.00 = $10.50 + 3(b)

3*3 = $9.00

$10.50 + $9.00 = $19.50

$20.00 - $19.50 = $0.50

($0.50 is the reminder).

Have a great day, all!!
