It cost Fawzia $12.00 to send 80 text messages. How many text messages did she send if she spent $19.95?
We can start by finding out how much it cost Fawzia per text message.
Cost per text message = Total cost ÷ Number of text messages
Cost per text message = $12.00 ÷ 80 = $0.15
Now we can use this information to find out how many text messages Fawzia sent for $19.95.
Number of text messages = Total cost ÷ Cost per text message
Number of text messages = $19.95 ÷ $0.15 = 133
Therefore, Fawzia sent 133 text messages if she spent $19.95.
To find out how many text messages Fawzia sent if she spent $19.95, we can set up a proportion.
Let's set up the proportion:
Cost of 80 text messages / Number of text messages = Total cost / Number of text messages
$12.00 / 80 messages = $19.95 / x
Cross multiplying, we get:
$12.00 * x = 80 messages * $19.95
Simplifying, we have:
$12.00 * x = $1596.00
Dividing both sides by $12.00, we find:
x = $1596.00 / $12.00
x = 133.00
So, Fawzia sent 133 text messages if she spent $19.95.
To find out how many text messages Fawzia sent if she spent $19.95, we need to determine the cost per text message.
First, we need to calculate the cost per text message using the given information that it cost her $12.00 to send 80 text messages.
Cost per text message = Total cost / Total text messages
Cost per text message = $12.00 / 80
Cost per text message = $0.15
Now that we know the cost per text message, we can work backward to find out the number of text messages she sent with a total cost of $19.95.
Number of text messages = Total cost / Cost per text message
Number of text messages = $19.95 / $0.15
Number of text messages = 133
Therefore, Fawzia sent 133 text messages if she spent $19.95.
