Question

Can someone help me with this
(show work)

Answer 1

16

Explanation:

$500 ÷ $31.25 = the number of the calculator that the school bought

It is because each calculator cost RM31.25 and the school used $500 to buy plenty of number of them.

Answer 2

Since each calculator is an x amount of money, you’ll have to divide by “x” or in this case, $31.25. Now, we know how much money they’ve spent, that being $500, so it makes things fairly simple,

500 / 31.25 = 16 calculators.

Leaving us with the answer being 16 calculators.
