Question

Thomas has $10 to spend on lunch. He decides to buy some chicken sandwiches, which cost $2.75 each, and one container of orange juice, which costs $1.50.

What is the maximum number of chicken sandwiches Thomas can buy?

Answer 1

Thomas can buy 3 chicken sandwiches.

Explanation: Thomas has $10.00. 10.00 - 1.50 = 8.50 . $8.50 is what Thomas has for chicken sandwiches. if we divide 8.50 by 2.75, we got roughly 3, which is the amount of chicken sandwiches thomas can get.

Answer 2

3

Explanation:

10-1.5=8.5

2.75x3= 8.25

he wont have enough to buy 4. he can only buy 3 with change left over
