Question

Tayler has $320 to pay for dining room chairs. She expects to pay about $80 per chair. Her friend told her that she has 3 that Taylor can have for free. Complete the equation below to find the total number of chairs that Taylor can get for her dining room. Use "c" to represent the total chairs.

Answer 1

c = about 7 chairs if each each that Tayler buys is exactly $80.

320 divided by 80 = 4

That means that Tayler bought 4 chairs at 80 dollars a chair. Then her friend gave her 3 chairs for free, so 4 + 3 = 7 chairs that Tayler will have.

Answer 2

c = about 7 chairs if each each that Tayler buys is exactly $80.
320 divided by 80 = 4
That means that Tayler bought 4 chairs at 80 dollars a chair. Then her friend gave her 3 chairs for free, so 4 + 3 = 7 chairs that Tayler will have.
