You have to do what it says if you have to divide you divide if you have to multiply you multiply if you have to add you add and that is the same for subtraction as well.
I hope this helps you out.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given : Cost of a gallon of milk = $2.50.
Cost of a cup of yogurt = $1.20.
Total money Monica has = $20.
Number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy = x.
And inequality made is also correct
1.20x + 2.5 ≤ 20.
Now, we need to solve it for x.
Subtracting 2.5 from both sides, we get
1.20x + 2.5 -2.5 ≤ 20 - 2.5.
1.20x ≤ 17.5
Dividing both sides by 1.20, we get
1.20x/1.20 ≤ 17.5/1.20.
x ≤ 14.5833...
Because it's less than 15, so final answer is : 14 is greatest number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy.
80 is the estimate that I say it's pretty close
