Quick help: 7th grade hw question

"You are buying flowers to hand out at a school dance. Roses cost 30$ for a dozen but cost more if bought individually. With the money you have, you can buy 7 dozen and four single roses (64). How much is one rose? How much money do you have?

Answer 1

One rose is $2.50

You have $220

How I solved the total cost of one rose was I did 30/12 to get 2.5.

Then to solve my amount of money I have, I did 30 x 7 then I did 2.5 x 4 and added those totals together
