Question

Lindsey's goal is to sell at least 35 candles at each of 15 craft fairs. She makes 24 candles each day for 20 days. Use the drop-down menus to explain whether Lindsey makes enough candles to reach her goal.

Answer 1

D.Lindsay makes 480 candles. She divides 480 by 15 to get 32. She does not make enough candles.

Explanation:

= 24 candles each days × 20 days

= 480 candles

Now if we divide the 480 candles from 15 so we get 32

This is less than the minimum candles required i.e. 35

So, the option D is correct
