Question

It costs $2.50 to rent bowling shoes. Each

game costs $2.25. You have $9.25. Write
and solve an equation to find out how
many games you can bowl.

Answer 1

1.93

Explanation:

Let G be the number of games you can bowl.

The cost to rent bowling shoes and play each game is 2.50 + 2.25 = $<<2.5+2.25=4.75>>4.75.

So the equation would be:

4.75G = 9.25

To solve the equation, we can divide both sides by 4.75:

G = 9.25 / 4.75

G = 1.93

You can bowl 1.93 games.
