Answer 1

For this, you can first find 35% of $ 500, like this

$\text{ \%35}=\frac{35}{100}=0.35$

To get this value, multiply 500 by 0.35:

$500\cdot0.35=175$

That means Jeff can buy items from the table that cost $ 175 or less, as are:

*Hockey Gloves: $130

*Hockey Stick Bag: $90

*Hockey Helmet: $110

*Shoulder Pads: $40

*Hockey Jersey: $170

Therefore, the correct answers are

B. Hockey gloves and shoulder pads ($130 + $40 = $170)

C. Hockey helmet and shoulder pads ($110 + $40 = $150)

D. Hockey stick bag and shoulder pads ($90 + $40 = $130)

F. Hockey Jersey ($170)
