1 bead costs $3.
1 bag of 5 beads costs $11.
Adrian has $50.
- What is the maximum number of bags that Adrian can buy?
- How many beads does Adrian buy in total?
(a)
Sets of $11 in $50
= 50 ÷ 11
= 4 r 6
Maximum number of bags that Adrian can buy = 4
(b)
Number of beads that he can buy with $44
= 4 x 5
= 20
Number of beads that Adrian can buy with $6
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Total number of beads that Adrian buys
= 20 + 2
= 22
Answer(s): (a) 4; (b) 22
