The entry fee for a charity event is $15 per pair of people. The fee can be

paid in cash or by collecting and turning in soda can tabs. Every 10 tabs
collected earns $0.01.
Brian and Eva are collecting tabs to pay their entry fee. So far, Eva has
collected 7,100 tabs and Brian has collected 1,300 tabs. What is the
least number of tabs they must still collect in order to have enough to
pay the entry fee?

Answer:

660

Explanation:

First, to find out how much money they have collected so far, you need to add 7100 + 1300 which is 8400. 8400= $8.40. So now you know that they have collected 8.40, you need to subtract 1500-840 which = 660

Hope this helps!
