Answer 1

Given:

The local office supply store charges $0.08 per page to make photocopies.

Lionel paid $20.00 for a set of copies.

To find:

How many pages did Lionel have copied?

Solution:

The cost of making a photocopy of each page at the local office supply store is = $ 0.08

The total amount, Lionel paid for a set of photocopies = $ 20.00

Let's assume "n" represents the no. of pages Lionel had photocopied from the store.

Now, we can say that

[Total amount paid] = n × [Cost of photocopying each page]

substituting the values, we get

$\implies 20 = n \times 0.08$

$\implies n = \frac{20}{0.08}$

multiplying both numerator and denominator by 100 on the RHS

$\implies n = \frac{20 \times 100}{0.08\times 100}$

$\implies n = \frac{2000 }{8}$

$\implies \bold{n = 250}$

Thus, Lionel had photocopied 250 pages from the local office supply store.
