Levi wants to buy 19 identical markers as follows.
1 for $4.106 for $24.50 What is the least amount of money she needs to buy 19 such markers?
Maximum number of sets that Levi can buy
= 19 ÷ 6
= 3 r 1
Amount to pay for 3 sets of 6 markers
= 3 x 24.50
= $73.50
Amount to pay for the remaining markers not part of a set
= 1 x 4.10
= $4.10
Least amount that Levi needed to pay
= 73.50 + 4.10
= $77.60
Answer(s): $77.60
