Question 8 • SC-Mathematics 6

Felicia had $80 when she went to a music store that charges $18 for each CD. She needs to have no less than $20 in her wallet when she leaves the store so she has enough money to buy gas for the ride home. Which shows a possible number of CDs she could buy? Select three options.

Answer
A
1
B
2
C
3
D
4
E
5

Explanation

Felicia can spend at most $60 because she must keep at least $20 from her original $80. Each CD costs $18, so 1, 2, or 3 CDs cost $18, $36, or $54; all leave her with at least $20. Four CDs would cost $72, which is too much.
