Twelve friends came to Guy’s birthday party. He received seven gifts and a total of $95 in cash for his birthday. He buys an airplane model kit for $9, and he wants to donate $8 to each of several local animal shelters. How much money will he have left if he donates to as many animal shelters as possible?

Sagot :

$95-$9 = $86 / $8 = 10 animal shelters with a remainder of $6

I hope this helps! :)

Answer: $6


Step-by-step explanation:

Cash received by him on his birthday = $95

After buying airplane kit for $9

Total cash left with him= $95-$9=$86

Let x be the number of animal shelters.

Then the amount donated to animal shelters= 8x.... a multiple of 8

Thus, we know that 80<86 [a multiple of 8]

Thus, the maximum animal shelter he donated=[tex]\frac{80}{8}=10[/tex]

The money he donated to the animal shelters= $80

Thus, money left after donation=86-80=$6
