Question

Sharon has at most $25 to spend on her sister's birthday gift. She already bought a knitting machine for her, which cost $14.99. She would also like to get her sister some skeins of yarn to go with it. Each skein costs $2.75.

Answer 1

Answer:

she can only buy 4 skeins of yarn because 4 skeins of yarn costs 11

Step-by-step explanation:

11 plus 14.99 equals 24.91

Answer 2

Answer:

A=

2.75y+14.99≤25

B= 3

25-14.99= 10.01

10.01 / 2.75= 3.64

you can't by 91/25

you round down because you can't round up otherwise Sharon would go over $25 and because 8.25+2.25=11

so you do 3x2.75= 8.25 to make sure that it doesn't go over 25

So therefore the most skeins of yarn that Sharon can buy is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

for B

25-14.99= 10.01

10.01 / 2.75= 3.64

you can't by 91/25

you round down because you can't round up otherwise Sharon would go over $25 and because 8.25+2.25=11

so you do 3x2.75= 8.25 to make sure that it doesn't go over 25

So therefore the most skeins of yarn that Sharon can buy is 3.
