Question

Joe went to the grocery store with $10 in his pocket. He wants to purchase as many 12-packs of soda as he can. One 12-pack

costs $280. How many can he buy?

Answer 1

he cannot buy any soda

Answer 2

3 packs

Explanation:

Joe has 10 dollars in all. To find how many packs of soda he can buy, you can divide $10 by $2.80.

10/2.8 = 3 remainder 1.6.

So he can buy 3 packs of soda, but he will have $1.60 in change.
