Question

Jim's teacher wants to buy note pads for the entire class. if not pads cost $1.75 each, write an equation that shows how many can be bought with $40.

Answer 1

Hello,

To get the number of notepads that can be bought for up to 40 dollars, you need to divide 40 with the cost of single unit (1.75) dollars.


`40 / 1.75 = 22.857`

Hope this helps.
