1 card costs $2.
1 bag of 5 cards costs $10.
Alex has $64.
- What is the maximum number of bags that Alex can buy?
- How many cards does Alex buy in total?
(a)
Sets of $10 in $64
= 64 ÷ 10
= 6 r 4
Maximum number of bags that Alex can buy = 6
(b)
Number of cards that he can buy with $60
= 6 x 5
= 30
Number of cards that Alex can buy with $4
= 4 ÷ 2
= 2
Total number of cards that Alex buys
= 30 + 2
= 32
Answer(s): (a) 6; (b) 32
