Question

Longs coffee shop sells a refill mug for $8.85. Each refill costs $1.50. Last month, Jalissa spent $26.95 on mug and refills. How many refills did she buy

Answer 1

About 12.

Explanation: Subtract $8.85 from $26.95 which equals to $18.01
Divide $1.50 from $18.01 which equals to $12.0666666667

Answer 2

15

Explanation:

26.95-8.85=21.1/1.5=14.06 repeating

You can't have 14.06 repeating refills so add 1 to 14 to get 15.
