Question

Jasmine wants to use her savings of $1128 to buy video games and music CDs. The total price of the music CDs she bought was $72. The video games cost $43 each. What is the maximum number of video games that Jasmine can buy with her savings?

A.24
B.25
C.26
D.27

Answer 1

$1,128-$72=$1,056 divided by $43 =24.55

The answer should be 24 because 25 would put her over the cost.

Answer 2

First we subtract the cost of the music CDs from her savings 1,128 - 72 = 1,056. Next Jasmine wants to know how many video games she can buy with the remainder money. 1,056 ÷ 43 = 24 (rounded). Your answer is A. 24.

Hope this helps,
