Question

Under his household expense budget category, Mark has allocated $60 per month for pet food. He can purchase wet food in a can for $1.50 per can or dry food in a bag for $3 per bag.

Name a combination of bags and cans that will allow him to meet his budget exactly.

Answer 1

Hello, again

 

One possibility

20 cans at 1.50 =30

10 bags at 3 =   30

so, he met his budget of 60 exactly.
