Question

Fatima bought supplies for his new class. She bought 6 notebooks for $10. She also bought 3 markers for x dollars each and 3-packs of pencils for $4. Write an expression in the simplest form that Fatima could use to find the total cost of the supplies. Write your plan and justify steps.

Answer 1

C = 10n/6 + m/3 + 4p/3

= 5n/3 + m/3 + 4p/3

= (1/3)(5n+m +4p)

= total cost where

n= number of notebooks,

m=number of markers,

p = number of pencils,

C= number of dollars
