Erin has a $450 gift card from a clothing store. she has spent 28 so far. she wants to buy barrettes for 2.95 each. how many barrettes can she buy without going over her limit of the card

143

Step-by-step explanation:

450-28= 422

422÷2.95= 143.05

round down to 143

Written explanation:

If her first card had $450 but she spent $28 that means she only has $422 left. In order to find out how many barrettes she can buy you divide the amount she has left by 2.95 and get roughly 143.05 barrettes, but you can't go over the budget so at the max Erin can only get 143 barrettes
