Answer:

he would only be able to buy 2 boxes of pizza

Explanation:

Subtract $1.99 from the $15 he has.

$15 - $1.99 = $13.01

Divide $13.01 by $4.00

$13.01/$4.00 = 3.25

There is a decimal in the final answer which means its not a whole pizza. So, the max he would be able to buy is 2 bokes of pizza
