Question

Tomorrow is Earth Day, and Mr. Robertson is having a party during each of his science

classes. During the parties, students are going to make a pudding snack that looks like dirt!
To save money, Mr. Robertson purchased a case of 60 pudding cups instead of a bunch of
small packages. This way, each pudding cup only cost $1.68.
Let c represent the cost of the case. Which equation models the problem?
C
Over
60
= 1.68
Or
1.68C = 60

Solve this equation to find the cost of the case.

Answer 1

Equation that represents model: C over 60 = 1.68

Cost of the case: $100.80

Explanation:

FIND THE FORMULA FOR COST OF THE CASE

C/60 = 1.68

x60 = x 60

C = 1.68 x 60 -----> 1.68 x 60 = 100.8

THE COST OF THE CASE IS $100.80!
