Certainly! Let's break it down step by step.
You have a digital music service that offers a subscription plan. This plan has two parts:
A $10 membership fee, which you pay just to be a member.
A charge of $1.50 for each song you want to download.
You want to find out how many songs you can download at most if you're willing to spend a maximum of $40.
To figure this out, you can start by subtracting the membership fee from your $40 budget. So, you have $40 - $10 = $30 left to spend on song downloads.
Now, you need to see how many $1.50 song downloads you can get with your remaining $30. To do this, you can divide your budget ($30) by the cost per song ($1.50):
$30 ÷ $1.50 = 20
So, you can download at most 20 songs with your $40 budget. That's how many songs you can get while staying within your budget.
