Answer 1

To find the total cost of 2 packets of crisps and check if Oscar has enough money for a drink

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total cost of 2 packets of crisps, we need to know the cost of each packet. Since the given options are in pounds (£), we can add the costs of the two packets together. Let's calculate:

1. Option 1: £28p + £28p = £(28+28)p = £56p
2. Option 2: £28p + £42p = £(28+42)p = £70p

Now, let's check if Oscar has enough money left to buy a drink. We subtract the total cost of the crisps from the £1 he has. We know that 100p = £1, so:

Oscar has £100p - £56p = £44p left if he chooses option 1.

Oscar has £100p - £70p = £30p left if he chooses option 2.

Neither option leaves Oscar with enough money (£1) to buy a drink. Therefore, he does not have enough money left.
