The State Board of Education has $2,835,515 to buy new calculators. Each calculator costs $99. After buying as many calculators as it can with its budget, how much money will the State Board of Education have left over?

Respuesta :

The State Board will be left with $56.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the maximum number of calculators that can be bought.

⇒ Maximum number of calculators = Total Cost/Cost of 1 calculator

= 2835515/99 = 28641.57 ≈ 28641 (Rounding off)

  • Step 2: Find the cost of 28641 calculators

⇒ 28641 × 99 = $2,835,459

  • Step 3: Find the remaining amount left with the Board.

⇒ $2,835,515 - $2,835,459 = $56
