Question

Aiden is shopping for school supplies. He has $35 to spend on a calculator and notebooks. He will buy one calculator for $18. Let n represent the cost of one notebook. Which expression represents the number of notebooks Aiden can buy with the $35?

Answer 1

It can be written as

n= 35/18. Here n is the number of notebooks, 35 is the amount of money in dollars, and 18 is the cost of one calculator.

And hence he can buy 16.111 notebooks with 35$.
