Question

How many tacos could you buy with your money? If you had $20 dollars would you have enough money to buy a taco for 37 students on a Tuesday?

Answer 1

You can buy 40 tacos

You have enough money

Explanation:

Given

`Amount = \$20`

`Taco = 20`

`Unit\ Cost = \$0.50` --- missing from the question

Required

Determine if you have enough amount

The number of Tacos that $20 can afford is calculated as:

`Tacos = (Amount)/(Unit\ Cost)`

So, we have:

`Tacos = (20)/(0.50)`

`Tacos = 40`

`40 > 37` -- i.e. the number of Tacos will go round the 37 students

Hence, you have enough money
