Katye received 15 gifts and a total of $100 in cash for her birthday. She buys one book that costs $23, and she wants to donate $10 to each of several local charities. How much money will Katye have left over if she donates to as many charities as possible? HELP ME!!!!!!!!!! ASAPPPP!!!!

Answer 1

Answer: HERES YOUR HURRIED ANSWER!

Let's start by finding the total amount of money that Katye will donate to the local charities.

If she donates $10 to each charity, and she donates to as many charities as possible, then we can use division to find the number of charities:

Number of charities = (total cash - cost of book) ÷ donation amount

Number of charities = (100 - 23) ÷ 10

Number of charities = 7

So Katye can donate to 7 charities

The total amount she will donate is:

Total donation = number of charities × donation amount

Total donation = 7 × 10

Total donation = $70

To find out how much money Katye will have left over, we can subtract the cost of the book and the total donation from the total amount of cash:

Leftover money = total cash - cost of book - total donation

Leftover money = 100 - 23 - 70

Leftover money = $7

Therefore, Katye will have $7 left over after buying the book and donating to as many local charities as possible

Answer 2

Answer: Katye will have $7 left over after buying a book and donating to as many charities as possible.

Explanation:

If Katye received $100 in cash and spent $23 on a book, she would have $77 left. If she donates $10 to each charity, she can donate to a maximum of $77/$10 = 7 charities.

So, if she donates $10 to 7 charities, she would have spent a total of $10 x 7 = $70 on donations.

Therefore, Katye will have $77 - $70 = $7 left over after buying a book and donating to as many charities as possible.
