1 pen costs $3.
1 bag of 6 pens costs $13.
Aden has $64.
- What is the maximum number of bags that Aden can buy?
- How many pens does Aden buy in total?
(a)
Sets of $13 in $64
= 64 ÷ 13
= 4 r 12
Maximum number of bags that Aden can buy = 4
(b)
Number of pens that he can buy with $52
= 4 x 6
= 24
Number of pens that Aden can buy with $12
= 12 ÷ 3
= 4
Total number of pens that Aden buys
= 24 + 4
= 28
Answer(s): (a) 4; (b) 28
