How Many Pens Can Alice Buy With M Dollars, If K Pens Cost N Cents?
How many pens can Alice buy with m dollars, if k pens cost n cents?
Answer:
Equation:
k = m ÷ n
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of money Alice have = m
Number of pens = k
Cost of each pen = n
Total number of pens that can be bought with money on hand:
k = m÷n
Lets say:
m = $20
n (cost of each pen) = $0.50 or 50 cents
To find how many pens(k) a $20 (m) can buy:
k = $20 ÷ $0.50
k = 40 pens
