Question

Stewart has $26 dollars. He spent $12.81, including tax, to buy a new DVD. He needs to set aside $10.00 to pay for his lunch next week. If peanuts cost $0.42 per package including tax, describe the maximum number of packages that Stewart can buy?

Answer 1

7

Explanation:

12.81 (DVD) + 10.00 (How much he needs) = 22.81

26 - 22.81 = 3.19

3.19 / 0.42 = 7 with a leftover of 25 cents

Hope this helped! :DD
