Question

9.) If a dozen balloons cost 30 cents, how many balloons can you get for 1 dollar?

A. 40 balloons
C. 36 balloons
B. 44 balloons
D. 50 balloons

Answer 1

44

Explanation:

30=12 Balloons

30 goes into 100 3 times

3 x 300 =90

now there are only ten cents left

3x10 = 30

12/3=4

40 + 4 = 44

Answer 2

1 dozen = 12

1 dollar / 30 cents = 3 1/3

You can buy 3 1/3 dozen.

12 x 3 1/3 = 40

You can buy 40 balloons for a dollar.
