Question

Jamal has $15.00 to spend at the concession stand. He buys nachos for $7.50, and he wants to purchase some sour straws for $1.50 each. How many sour straws can Jamal purchase with the money that he has?

Answer 1

15-7.50=7.50
7.50/1.50=?

Answer 2

The number of sour straws that Jamal can purchase with the money that he has is 5.

Since Jamal has $15.00 to spend at the concession stand. He buys nachos for $7.50, the amount remaining with him will be:

= $15.00 - $7.50

= $7.50

Since the sour straws cost $1.50 each, the number that he'll be able to buy will be:

= $7.50 / $1.50

= 5

He can only purchase 5 sour straws.
