Fudge centres: Nut clusters: Truffles:

Answer:

25 fudge centres, 20 nut clusters, 18 truffles, 6 of each type of chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

Michel has a total of $15.00

So, if he only has to buy one type, we just divide the total amount by the price, like this:

[tex]\frac{15.00}{0.60}[/tex] = 25 fudge centres

[tex]\frac{15.00}{0.75}[/tex] = 20 nut clusters

[tex]\frac{15.00}{0.80}[/tex] = 18.75, so we round down = 18 truffles

If he buys the same of number of each type, we know that:

0.60x + 0.75x + 0.80x ≤ $15.00

2.15x ≤ 15.00

x ≤ 6.977...

This means that Michel can only buy 6 of each type of chocolate.

Answer:

If he buys only one type, he can buy 25 fudge centers OR 20 nut clusters OR 18 truffles.

The equations you can write to solve those are:

0.6f = 15

0.75n = 15

0.8t = 15

If he buys an equal number of each then

0.6f + 0.75n + 0.8t = 15

and

f = n = t

He can buy 6 of each without going over his budget.
