Question

to make party invitations, Macie could buy a package of paper for $10.50, or she would buy x individual sheets of the same paper for $0.15 each. What is the largest value of x that would make buying the individual sheets less expensive than buying the package

Answer 1

0.15x = 10.50

x = 70

Make x 1 less so it would be less expensive than the package.

70 - 1 = 69

x = 69
