Question

Mr. Vlasic needs to buy 2

pens each for the 17
students in his class. If
pens come in packs of 6
and each pack costs $2.35,
what is the minimum
amount that Mr. Vlasic must
spend?

Answer 1

Answer: The minimum amount he would have to spend would be $14.01

Explanation:

17 students each need two pens: 17*2=34 , Each pack contains 6 pens. The amount of packages you can buy without excessively overbuying would be six pack which would give you 36 pens. The total would be $14.10 Because 6*2.35 = $14.10

Answer 2

the answer will be $14.1
