there are triplets that pass a three color gumball machine. each gumball costing one penny. each child wants the same color gumball what is the most you'll spend?
No way to tell. If there are only 3 red gumballs in the machine, you'll have to buy out the whole machine if the first child gets a red.
To find out the maximum amount you will spend on gumballs, we need to determine how many gumballs each child wants and multiply that by the cost of each gumball.
Since each child wants the same color gumball, we only need to calculate the cost for one child and then multiply it by three (since there are three children).
Let's assume each child wants x number of gumballs. Since the gumballs cost one penny each, the cost for one child will be x * $0.01.
Therefore, the total amount you will spend on gumballs will be 3 * (x * $0.01).
Please provide the number of gumballs each child wants (x) so that I can calculate the maximum amount you'll spend.
