planning a party for one-hundred people The family needs one plastic plate for each person at the party The shops sell plates in packages of fifteen for five dollars and ninety-nine cents per package

Answer 1

Since there is no question for this problem, I'll take a guess here.

You could ask, "How many packages must be purchased?" ANSWER: 7 PACKAGES

Or, you could ask, "HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?" ...................ANSWER: $41.93

15 plates in a package, and you need 100 plates: 100/15 = 6.67 Packages

Since stores don't open packages, you'll have to purchase 7 PACKAGES.

Since each package sells for $5.99, 7 packages sell for $5.99 x 7 = $41.93.

Hope this helps you Leeah.
