Question

you and a friend both would like a salad and a small drink. between the two of you, you have $8.00. a salad costs $2.49 and a small drink cost $0.99. can either of you have a second salad or drink? assume there is no sales tax. (i think the answer is no)

Answer 1

Answer: yes one drink

Explanation:

Answer 2

A. yes, one salad

B. yes, one of each

C. yes, one drink

D. no, you cannot

The answer is yes, one drink because if you are going to buy 2 salads at $2.49 and 2 drinks at $0.99. Two salads will cost $4.98 and two drinks will cost $1.98, if you add the number of drinks and salads together we will have $6.96 then subtract the amount of money you have with you from $6.98 (8.00 - 6.98) then you will have $1.04. So, one of you can use the remaining $1.04 to buy second drink.
