Alex wants to buy cupcakes for his work office but also does not want to spend over $25 because he doesn't like his co workers *that* much. If each cupcake cost $1.50, what is the max number of cupcakes that Alex can buy without going over his $25 limit? Write an equation and solve it.

16 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount Alex wants to spend = $25

Cost of each cupcake = $1.50

what is the max number of

cupcakes that Alex can buy without going over his $25 limit?

Let

x = maximum number of cupcakes Alex can buy

Amount Alex wants to spend = Cost of each cupcake * maximum number of cupcakes Alex can buy

25 = 1.50x

x = 25 / 1.50

x = 16.67

The maximum number of cupcakes that Alex can buy without going over his $25 limit is 16 cupcakes as a whole

answer: 370

step-by-step explanation:

remember use pemdas! there are no parentheses or exponents so lets move onto the first part of the equation: multiplication and division. first, lets break the first part of the equation up into something easier using the distributive property. 28 * 12= (20 *12) + (8*12) you know that 20*12 is 240 and 8*12 is 96. add them and you get 336. then, lets solve the last part of the equation (the last part of pemdas is addition and subtraction). 336 plus 34 is 370. hope this !
