Answer: Yes. The expression can be used to calculate how much Danielle has.
Explanation:
The choir trip expenses are:
Train tickets = $77
Hotels = $106
Meals = $34
Total expense = $77 + $106 + $34 = $217
Since we are told that Danielle has a third of the amount needed for the trip. This means that we have to calculate 1/3 of $217 This will be:
= 1/3 × $217
= $72.33
Also, the expression (77+106+34) divided 3 shows the amount that Danielle has. Thus will be:
= (77+106+34) / 3
= 217/3
= 72.33
