Question

Alison paid $21.75 for a number of packets of rice crackers. Three packets of rice crackers cost $1.45. How many packets of rice crackers did Alison buy? If she were to buy 60 packets of the same rice crackers, would $30 be enough to pay for them?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x = 1.45

3x /3 = 1.45 / 3

x = 0.483 cost per packet.

To Find the number of packs bought = x

21.75 = 0.483x

0.483x = 21.75

0.483x / 0.483 = 21.75 / 0.483

x = 45 packets bought

Find the total cost of 60 packets

x = 0.483(60)

x = $28.98 is the total cost for 60 packs

Therefore $30 is enough to pay for 60 packets
