I Need Help with This Math Question, Can Anyone Help?

Question

1. 
   

Emanuel went shopping for supplies and saw this sign

Notebooks: $1.75

Pencils: $0.50

Sharpeners: $2.00

What are the quantities in this situation?

   3. What mathematical questions could we ask? 

Answer 1

It is a vague question but the only quantities that are listed are the prices of each item, not quantity for the amount of each item is given nor is a maximum budget given. Therefore, I can only assume that you could ask how much the total cost would be to buy x, y, and z amounts of each item.
