Question

Ayden and his children went into a grocery store and where they sell peaches for $0.75 each and mangos for $1.75 each. Ayden has $20 to spend and must buy no less than 16 peaches and mangos altogether. If Ayden decided to buy 7 mangos, determine the maximum number of peaches that he could buy.

Answer 1

he can buy 10 peaches.

Explanation:

7 mangoes will be 12.25. so you subtract his original money(20) from 12.25 which gives you 7.75. then divide 7.75 by 0.75(cost of a peach) and your answer will be 10(rounded off).
