Question

A display case of plastic bracelets are marked 13 for $3. If Nate has $60, how many plastic bracelets can Nate get? (assume no other taxes or fees)

Answer 1

$4

Explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

15 stickers 30 stickers

----------------- = -------------

2 dollars x stickers

Using cross products

15x = 2*30

15x = 60

Divide by 15

15x/15 = 60/15

x = 4
