Macy wants to buy a skateboard for $42. She has $95 in her account. She spent $12.99 to buy stationary. She also wants to buy some ice cream bars for $3.07 each. What is the maximum number of ice cream bars, n, that Macy can buy so that she has enough money left to buy the skateboard? n ≤ 13 n ≥ 13 n ≤ 16 n ≥ 16 @ah123456x @StudyGurl14

First step: What is 95 - 12.99?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

82.01
