You and a friend both would like a salad and a small drink. Between the two of you, you have $8.00. A salad costs $2.49 and a small drink is $0.99. Can either of you have a second salad or a drink? Assume there is no sales tax.

No, you cannot.

No, you cannot.

are you sure

Apologies for the confusion. Yes, you can have one salad and one small drink with your budget of $8.00. The total cost of one salad ($2.49) and one small drink ($0.99) is $3.48, which is less than your available budget. Therefore, you can both have a salad and a small drink.
