Question

Russell wants to buy three ties and a belt and must spend no more than $80.00. The belt costs $28.50. If the three ties are the same price, then how much can he pay for each tie

Answer 1

Answer:$17.16

Explanation:

do you have to start by subtracting the cost of the belt from the total budget: 80-28.5= 51.5. Then you can divide the remaining money by three because he’s buying three ties: 51.5/3≈ $17.16
