Fred went to an arcade to play video games. He paid $2 for every 11 tokens he bought. He spent a total of $16 on tokens. Which equation can be used to determine t, the number of tokens Fred bought?
A. 2/16 = x/11
B. 2/11 = x/16
C. 18/t = 11/2
D. 11/2 = x/16
yes
Wait it’s D sorry

Correct! The equation is: 11/2 = t/16.
To determine the equation that can be used to determine the number of tokens Fred bought, we need to analyze the given information.
We know that Fred paid $2 for every 11 tokens he bought, and he spent a total of $16 on tokens. Let's use the variable t to represent the number of tokens Fred bought.
Based on the given information, we can set up the following equation:
2t = 16
In this equation, 2t represents the total amount that Fred spent on tokens, and 16 represents the total cost of the tokens.
Simplifying the equation:
t = 16/2
t = 8
Therefore, the equation that can be used to determine t, the number of tokens Fred bought, is:
8 = t
None of the given options match this equation.
