1. David goes into a candy store with $5.00. He buys 9 peppermints for $0.15 each and some sour candies. Each sour candy costs $0.25. Write and solve an inequality to show the maximum number of candies that David can buy. Be sure to include units on your answer.​

Answer 1

14

Explanation:

$5.00 - 9 peppermints

= $5.00 - $1.35

= $3.65

Step two. Figure out how many 25 cents are in $3.65.

$3.65 divided by .25

= 14.6 So David can buy 14 sour candies.
