Question

Mini muffins cost $3:00 per dozen Andre says I have $2:00 so I can afford 8 muffins Elena says I want to get 16 muffins so I’ll need to pay $4:00 do u agree with either both or neither of them explain the reason

Answer 1

I agree with both.

Explanation:

If it's $3 per dozen that would be $0.25 per muffin because

3 ÷ 12 = 0.25

And if Andre has $2 than he can only afford 8 muffins because

0.25 x 8 = 2

And if Elena wants 16 muffins

16 x 0.25 = 4

So she will have to pay $4.

Hope this makes sense and helps!
