Question

Emily went to the fair with $22.50. She spent $2.25 on food and wanted to spend the rest on rides which were $0.75. What is the maximum number of rides Emily can purchase?

Answer 1

19

Explanation:

2.25 + 0.75 = 3.00

22.50 - 3.00 = 19.50

Hope I helped!

Answer 2

19 rides.

2.25 + 0.75 = 3.00
22.50 - 3.00 = 19.50

though, you cannot pay half for a ride, so the answer is 19!!
