MULTIPLE CHOICE Question 10
Liam wants to treat some friends to lunch. He has $50 and knows that lunch will cost $8 per person. For how many people can Liam buy lunch?
A
Liam can buy lunch for 7 or fewer people, including himself.

B
Liam can buy lunch for 7 or more people, including himself.

C
Liam can buy lunch for 6 or fewer people, including himself.

D
Liam can buy lunch for 6 or more people, including himself.

C

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x 6 would equal 48, which results in not having enough money to buy lunch for more people.

the answer should be c

Step-by-step explanation:

let's do a equation for this problem.

8x = 50

/8     /8

  x = 6.25

x represents the amount of friends. we divide 8 by both sides to isolate x by itself.

since the final result gives us a decimal, we have to round it to the nearest whole number. it's not possible to have a decimal amount of friends. it should be 6. it cannot be 7 if you are wondering because 7 is bigger than 6.25. there's no way there can be 7 friends when there is a limit amount of 6. therefore, the answer is c.

if you use photomath right away it will give you the answer not like this app that you have to wait for people.
