Question

Frank starts off with $ 120 to spend on his shirts and shoes. Frank buys 3 shirts for $15.50 each. Shoes cost $32.50 each per pair. how many pairs of shoes did frank buy?

Answer 1

Shirts:  3 x 15.50 = 46.50

120 - 46.50 = 73.50 left to spend on shoes

73.50/32.50(cost per pair) = 2.26....so he was able to purchase 2 pairs of shoes.
