Answer:

a) $40

b) $15

Explanation:

How much will 24 balloons cost?

To get 24 balloons we will have to multiply 6 by 4.

6 x 4 = 24

Now, since 6 balloons cost $10, and we need 4 sets of 6 balloons to get 24, we are going to multiply 4 by 10.

4 x 10 = 40

Your answer to the first question would be $40

How much will 9 balloons cost?

To get the cost for 9 balloons we have to assume that the cost for 3 balloons is $5

If we assume this, then the cost for 9 balloons would be $15
