Answer:

You can only buy 7.

Explanation:

the most you can spend is $25 so you divide 25 by 3.29 which gives us 7.6 but in this case we don't round because you can only spend $25, so you can only buy 7.

Answer:

7

Explanation:

25÷3.29=7.59

you can't buy half a fish and rounding up would go over budget so you buy 7 with a little change left over
