Question

the admission fee to the museum $3.50 per person, and it costs $0.75 each for the six short movies that are playing in the museum. Manny, Moe, and jack have a total of $20 to spend. What is the greatest number of movies they can see?

Answer 1

10.5+0.75x=20

X=12

Explanation:

They can watch about 12 movies, 20 subtracted by 10.5 is 9.5, they have 9.5 dollars remaining to spend on movies, divide 9.5 by 0.75 to get 12.666, but they cant watch a half a movie together so round to 12. 0.75(12)=9
