The school events committee is planning to buy a banner and some helium balloons for graduation night. A store charges them $35 for the banner and $3 for each helium balloon. If the committee has at most $125 to spend, how many helium balloons can they buy

Sagot :

Answer:

30 baloons

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Remove the price of the banner from the total amount you can spend.  You should then end up with $90

2.  Divide 90 by 3, because each balloon costs $3.  You should end up with 30.

Answer:

30 balloons

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of banner = $ 35

Remaining amount after paying for banner = 125 - 35 = $90

Number of balloons = Remaining amount ÷ cost of one balloon

= 90 ÷ 3

 = 30
