Question

Angie and Kenny play online video games. Angie buys 1 software package and 2 months of game play. Kenny buys 1 software packages and 6 months of gameplay. Each software package costs $50. If their total is $250, what is the cost of one month of gameplay?

Answer 1

Answer:

One month of gameplay costs $18.75

Step-by-step explanation:

( 250 - 50 × 2 ) ÷ 8 = 18.75

Answer 2

Answer:

$18.75 is the cost for 1 month of gameplay.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 software packages in total

Unit price for software package is $50, and since there are two packages, $50x2=$100

Now, we know that the total amount of money that the software cost was $100, we can do 250-100=150

150 is how much they spent for 8 months of gameplay. (2+6=8)

To find how much 1 month of gameplay costs, we need to do 150/8 which is equivalent to $18.75
