Question

A small snowcone costs $0.75 at the local snowcone shack. Mrs. Eckelberry had the snowcone shack deliver small snowcones for some of her students. She spent $18.75 for the snowcones. The equation 0.75s = 18.75 could be used to determine how many snowcones were ordered. How many snowcones did Mrs. Eckelberry order? * 16 pointsss!

Answer 1

25 snowcones

Explanation:

0.75s = 18.75, where (s) is the number of students/snowcones ordered

Divide both sides by 0.75:

0.75s/0.75 = 18.75/0.75

s = 25
