Janet has a 65 dollar budget to buy paper goods and plastic cutlery for an impromptu birthday party. She determines that the paper goods will cost 37.50 . How many sets of cutlery can she purchase if each set costs 0.75? (She cannot buy a partial set of cutlery.)

Respuesta :

She can buy 36 sets of cutlery because first you subtract 37.50 from 65 then divide the difference by 0.75.
