Answer:

Alright so the question states that "She can only spend $3."

A sticker costs $0.35

A eraser is $0.99

A pencil costs $0.59

What you are trying to find is Can Linda buy 3 stickers and 2 erasers.

So add the total value of stickers prices. You need to know what's the cost of 3 stickers and 2 erasers

0.35+0.35+0.35= 1.05+0.99+0.99 = 3.03 So she can't. Now can she buy 1 sticker, 1 eraser, and 1 pencil. So is it enough to get 1 of each item?

0.35+0.99+0.59=1.93 Yeah you can.

But is it enough for her to get 3 stickers, 2 erasers and a pencil?

We already know the cost for 3 stickers and 2 erasers is $3.03. All you need to do is add $0.59 to find the total cost. The total cost of 3 stickers and 2 erasers and a pencil is $3.62. So the answer is No, because the total will be $3.62 and her budget is $3 so she will need extra $0.62 to cover the full cost.

Hope this helps
