Andre needs to buy hamburgers and hot dogs for a picnic. He has only $23.00 to spend and must buy at least 78 hamburgers or hot dogs. A store charges 50.50 per
hamburger and $0.25 per hot dog. Which of the following is a possible way Andre might buy the hamburgers and hot dogs?

Answer 1

The answer is 20 hamburgers and 25 hot dogs.

20(.5)+25(.25)<16.5

10+6.25<16.5

16.25<16.5

The budget is $16.50 and $16.25 is $.50 less therefore making it a possible option for Enrique.
