A greengrocers sells mangoes for 77p each.

a)

Find the greatest number of mangoes you can buy for £5.

b) How much change should you receive?

6 mangoes

0.38 or 38p

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently the value of the mango is £ 0.77, which means that to get the number of mangoes you can buy, you must divide this value to the amount of money you have, that is, £ 5

5 / 0.77 = 6.49

which means that it is enough for 6 mangoes.

To know the change, multiply the value of one by 6 and subtract it with £ 5, it would be the change.

6 * 0.77 = 4.62

5 - 4.62 = 0.38

That is, the change is £ 0.38 or 38p

(a) 6 mangoes

(b) £0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The greengocers sell the mangoes for 77 p.

The greatest number of mangoes you can buy for £5 can be gotten by dividing £5 by the price of each mango (77 p). We will only pick the whole number part because number of mangoes can only be whole number.

First, we convert £5 to pence:

£1 = 100 pence

=> £5 = 5 * 100 = 500 pence

Hence, the greatest number of mangoes that can be bought is:

500 / 77 = 6.49

Since we are only picking the whole number part, the answer is 6 mangoes.

(b) The price of 6 mangoes is:

6 * 77 = 462 pence

Hence, if you take £5 (500 pence) to the store, your change should be:

500 - 462 = 38 pence

38 pence is the same as £0.38

step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
