Question

Molly has 90.00 to spend shopping. CD's are 15.00 dollars each, and two are 25.00. What is the largest number of CD's Molly can buy?

Answer 1

Let's break down the information given:

- Molly has $90.00 to spend.
- A single CD costs $15.00, but she can buy two CDs for $25.00.

First, let's see how much she can spend on two CDs at the discounted price:

$90.00 - $25.00 = $65.00

Now, she has $65.00 left to spend. To find out how many individual CDs she can buy, divide the remaining money by the cost of a single CD:

$65.00 ÷ $15.00 = 4.33

Since Molly can't buy a fraction of a CD, she can buy **four individual CDs** with the remaining $65.00 after purchasing the two discounted ones.
