Question

I went to the candy store last weekend and I bought a total of 10 packs of candy. I bought M&Ms for $1 per pack and Twizzlers for 0.5 per pack. I spent a total of $6. How many packs of M&Ms did I buy?

Answer 1

Let's see. We can clarify a few things to make the question easier.

-We bought 10 packs of candy
-M&Ms are $1 per pack
-Twizzlers are $0.5 per pack

We need to find out how many bags of M&Ms we bought by only spending $6.

There are many combinations you can use to get to $6. However, I'm not sure what the format is. For example, you could buy 4 twizzler packs and then use the remaining money to find out how many M&Ms you bought. But this seems to be open to answers. Sorry
