Inequality Question

Answer 1

Answer:

$8.45

Step-by-step explanation:

if he has $26 to start and spends 17.55 on his friends, he has 8.45 leftover to spend on himself, but since he bought his friends pancakes for 17.55 their pancakes would have cost 8.775 each which suggests that Jeremiah likely cannot afford his own pancakes
