Question

Omar has a gift card for $40.00 at a gift shop. Omar wants to buy a hat for himself for $13.50. For his friends, he would like to buy souvenir bracelets, which are $3.25 each. All prices include taxes.

Answer 1

3.25 <26.50 (put a line under the < sign please Ok)

0mar can buy 8 bracelets

Explanation:

40.00 -13.50 (for hat)

=26.50 remaining

each bracelet cost 3.25

let x be the bracelets

3.25x < 26.50 (put a line under the < sign ok )

divide both sides by 3,25

3.25x /3.25 < 26.50 /3.25 (put line under the < sign)

x = 8.15 Bracelets cant be in decimal form so round to the nearest whole number x < 8 (put a line under the < sign)

Therefor Omar can buy 8 bracelets
