Question

Jamal has $ 15.00 to spend at the concession stand. He buys nachos for $7.50, and he wants to purchase some Sour Straws for $1.50 each. How many Sour Straws can Jamal purchase with the money that he has?

Answer 1

5 Sour Straws

Explanation:

He has $15.00 if he buys nachos for $7.50, that will leave him with $7.50. Each sour Straw is $1.50(5 x 1 .50 = 7.50) and $7.50 + $7.50 = $15.

Answer 2

Answer: 5 sour straws

Step-by-step explanation: If he spends 7.50, then he still has 7.50 left. 7.50 / 5= 1.50
