Winston is going to roast some marshmallows over a campfire tonight. He brought $10 to the store, and each bag of marshmallows costs $3.

OpenStudy (rayep12):

If Winston also has to spend $2 on a lighter, how many bags of marshmallows can he buy? (Assume that sales tax is already included in each price.)

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Im not sure if I'm supposed to use an equation or something but maybe 2 or 3 pcks of marshmallows. @ganeshie8 any clue??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

$2 is gone for lighter

OpenStudy (rayep12):

so 10 - 2 is 8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

He can't buy 3 packs with just $8, can he ?

OpenStudy (rayep12):

no

OpenStudy (rayep12):

only 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep, He might also change his mind and not buy any

OpenStudy (rayep12):

true

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So he can buy 0 or 1 or 2 packs

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Not more than 2 packs He can't afford

OpenStudy (rayep12):
