B. 10 bags of chips and 7 pounds of hamburger

Answer 1

C, since it says "she will be buying 6 pounds of hamburgers" include that as a given.
=== 6 pounds X $4 per pound = $24
and the remaining of the money is $26
=== $26 / $2 = 13 bags of chips
anyone can correct me, i might be wrong :D

B. 7 CDs and 5 DVDs
C. 8 CDs and 6 DVDs
D. 11 CDs and 3 DVDs

last one you guys!

Answer 5

B, all you have to do is just multiply the number of CD/DVD by the cost. For me, basically it's trial and error since you're given the number of CDs and DVDs.
=== 7 CDs X $10 = $70
=== 5 X $15 = $75
Just add all the cost, this gives you $145. Therefore, you have a remaining of $5 (maybe you could spend it for some ice cream for me lol).
