luncheon special at little jimmy's cost $4.89. the math club has $23.50 in the account. what is the greatest number of luncheon specials they can buy wit the money in their luncheon account?
$23.50/$4.89 = 4
Correct.
To determine the greatest number of luncheon specials the math club can buy with the money in their account, you need to divide the total amount of money in their account ($23.50) by the cost of each luncheon special ($4.89).
So, the calculation will be:
$23.50 / $4.89 = 4.80 (approximately)
Since you cannot purchase a fraction of a luncheon special, you would round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the math club can buy a maximum of 4 luncheon specials with the money in their account.
