1 card costs $2.
1 bag of 8 cards costs $8.
Ali has $60.
- What is the maximum number of bags that Ali can buy?
- How many cards does Ali buy in total?
(a)
Sets of $8 in $60
= 60 ÷ 8
= 7 r 4
Maximum number of bags that Ali can buy = 7
(b)
Number of cards that he can buy with $56
= 7 x 8
= 56
Number of cards that Ali can buy with $4
= 4 ÷ 2
= 2
Total number of cards that Ali buys
= 56 + 2
= 58
Answer(s): (a) 7; (b) 58
