1 bead costs $2.
1 bag of 6 beads costs $10.
Ahmad has $54.
- What is the maximum number of bags that Ahmad can buy?
- How many beads does Ahmad buy in total?
(a)
Sets of $10 in $54
= 54 ÷ 10
= 5 r 4
Maximum number of bags that Ahmad can buy = 5
(b)
Number of beads that he can buy with $50
= 5 x 6
= 30
Number of beads that Ahmad can buy with $4
= 4 ÷ 2
= 2
Total number of beads that Ahmad buys
= 30 + 2
= 32
Answer(s): (a) 5; (b) 32
