Question

It cost Jayden $4.80 to send 96 text messages. How much would it cost to send 155 text messages?​

Answer 1

$7.75

Explanation:

1. Take the cost - $4.80 for the 96 messages, and divide $4.80 by 96 to get the cost per message.

2. 4.80 ÷ 96 = $0.05 per message

3. Take that figure and multiply by 155 messages.

4. 155 × $0.05 per message = $7.75

Hope this helps!
