The maximum number of video games that Jasmine can buy with her savings is... 24 ✅

Allow me to explain...

First, subtract $72 from $1,128

1,128 - 72 = 1,056

⬆️ ⬆️

Then, divide $1,056 by $43

1,056 ÷ 43 = 24.5581...

⬆️ ⬆️

Coming to the conclusion that Jasmine only has enough money for a maximum of 24 video games. ✅

I hope this was helpful! (✿◠‿◠)

Answer:

Find out the number of video games that Jasmine can buy with her savings .

To proof

Let us assume that the number of video games Jasmine can buy be x .

As given

Jasmine wants to use her savings of $1128 to buy video games and music CDs.

The total price of the music CDs she bought was $72. The video games cost $43 each.

Than the equation becomes

72 + 43× x = 1128

simplify

72 + 43x = 1128

43x = 1128 - 72

43x = 1056

x = 24.6 (approx)

Take

x = 24

Therefore the maximum number of video games that Jasmine can buy with her savings be 24 .
