Question

Suppose you invest $10,470 to manufacture a new board game. Each game costs $2.65. How many games can you produce with your investment?

a) 3,950
b) 3,953
c) 3,947
d) 3,960

Answer 1

To find the number of games that can be produced with a given investment, you divide the total investment by the cost per game.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of games that can be produced, you need to divide the total investment by the cost per game. In this case, the total investment is $10,470 and the cost per game is $2.65. To calculate the number of games, divide $10,470 by $2.65:

$10,470 ÷ $2.65 = 3947.1698

Since you can't have a fraction of a game, you round down to the nearest whole number:

3947 games can be produced with the given investment.
