Mrs. Kuss received a $50 Itunes gift card for her birthday. She bought one album for $9.99 and would like to see how much money she has left to buy single songs. If each song costs $1.29, how many songs can Mrs. Kuss buy with her remaining money? Show your work.

She initially has $50 and she bought an album of $9. 99 so you subtract those $9.99 from $50 and you are left with $40.01, now you can either divide it by $1.29 to skip the long process or subtract $1.29 at a time. Once you do so, you will get an answer of 31 more songs with $0.02 left. YOU'RE WELCOME :D

Mrs kiss can buy about 31 songs

50.00-9.99 = 40.01
40.01 / 1.29 = 31.0
