Question

Jaiden has a prepaid phone plan plan (A) that charges 15 cents for each text sent and 10 cents per minute for calls. If jaiden has $6, how many texts can he send?

Answer 1

Answer: 24

Explanation:

Since it’s $.15 that means times four equals 60 and we know 60 is one dollar. If you sent 4 texts its 1 dollar. If you send 8 texts it’s 2 dollars. If you send 12 texts it’s 3 dollars. If you send 16 texts it’s 4 dollars. If you send 20 texts it 5 dollars. And if you send 24 texts it’s 6 dollars. Meaning you can only text 24 times.

Answer 2

six divided by.15 is equal to 40
