Suppose your office gives you $200 to buy binders small binders cost $7 each large binders cost $8 each writing quality that describes how many each kind of binders you can buy
With a budget of $200, you can calculate the number of each kind of binder you can buy based on their respective costs.
Let's assume the number of small binders you can buy is S, and the number of large binders you can buy is L.
Small binders cost $7 each, so the total cost of the small binders can be calculated by multiplying the number of small binders by $7:
Total cost of small binders = $7 x S
Similarly, large binders cost $8 each:
Total cost of large binders = $8 x L
Since the total budget is $200, the sum of the costs of small and large binders should not exceed $200:
Total cost of small binders + Total cost of large binders ≤ $200
Replacing the cost expressions with the given values, we have:
$7S + $8L ≤ $200
Now, you can explore different combinations of S and L to determine the maximum number of each binder you can purchase while staying within the budget.
