Answer: $35 are left over
Explanation:
To determine the amount of money left after buying as many laptop bags as possible, we need to calculate the maximum number of bags that can be purchased within the given budget.
The owner has $12,752 to spend and has already spent $9,621 on laptops. To calculate the maximum number of laptop bags that can be purchased, we divide the remaining budget by the cost per bag, which is $72.
Remaining budget for laptop bags = Total budget - Amount spent on laptops
Remaining budget for laptop bags = $12,752 - $9,621
Remaining budget for laptop bags = $3,131
To find the maximum number of laptop bags that can be purchased, we divide the remaining budget by the cost per bag:
Maximum number of laptop bags = Remaining budget for laptop bags / Cost per bag
Maximum number of laptop bags = $3,131 / $72
Maximum number of laptop bags ≈ 43.43 (rounded down to 43, as we can't purchase a fraction of a bag)
To find the amount of money left, we need to subtract the cost of the maximum number of bags from the remaining budget:
Amount of money left = Remaining budget for laptop bags - (Maximum number of laptop bags * Cost per bag)
Amount of money left = $3,131 - (43 * $72)
Amount of money left = $3,131 - $3,096
Amount of money left = $35
Therefore, the remainder is $35, and there is $35 left over after buying as many laptop bags as possible within the given budget.
