Question

Mr. Jeff has a budget of $150 to spend on music books. The cost of the books is $12. What is the maximum number of books can he buy?

Answer 1

12 books

Explanation:

if each book costs 12 dollars, and the budget is 150, then all you need to do is divide 150 by 12, in which case you will get 12.5.

you aren't able to go and by twelve and a half books, so you round down to twelve, and you will have six dollars to spare.
