151 is the correct anwer
LOL this is 6th grade math
To find out how many text messages Layla sent if she spent $15.10, we can set up a proportion using the given information.
We know that Layla spent $4.70 to send 47 text messages, so we can write the proportion as:
$4.70 / 47 = $15.10 / x
Where x is the number of text messages Layla sent for $15.10.
To solve this proportion, we can cross-multiply:
(4.70) * x = (47) * (15.10)
Simplifying, we have:
4.70x = 705.70
Now, we can isolate x by dividing both sides of the equation by 4.70:
x = 705.70 / 4.70
Calculating this, we find:
x = 150
Therefore, Layla sent 150 text messages if she spent $15.10.
