Question

Tracy had a total of $200 to spend while shopping. She has already spent $134 on clothes. She wants to buy some video games that are on sale for $20 each, including tax. Enter the maximum number od video games Tracy can buy with the remaining money.

Answer 1

Tracy had an initial amount of $200, but as she already spent $134, now she has the difference between those numbers.

`200-134=66`

Now she has $66. Each video game costs $20, to find the number of video games she can buy with $66, divide 66 by 20.

`(66)/(20)=3.3`

The result is 3.3 but, as she can't buy 3.3 video games, we say that the maximum number of video games she can buy is 3.
