Answer 2

Katye will be left with $7 if she donates to as many charities as possible

Explanation:

The total number of gifts Katye received = 15

The total amount in cash she received = $100

The cost of the book purchased from the gift amount = $23

So, the money left with her = Total money - Cost of the book

= $100 - $23 = $77

So, she still has $77 left with her.

Now, she wants to donate $10 to as many charities as she can.

`\textrm{Number of charities she can donate to} = \frac{\textrm{Total  amount to be donated}}{\textrm{Amount donated to each charity}} \\ = (77)/(10)  = 7.7`

As 7.7 is NOT a WHOLE number. So let us take the nearest smaller whole number to 7.7 which is 7.

Hence, she can donate to 7 charities.

Amount donated to 7 charities = 7 x $10 = $ 70

⇒ The money left with Katye = Total money to be donated - Donated amount = $77 - $70 = $7

Hence, Katye will be left with $7 if she donates to as many charities as possible.
