Nadia has £5 to buy pencils and rulers. Pencils are 8p each. Rulers are 30p each. She says “I will buy 15 pencils. Then I will buy as many rulers as possible. With my change, I will buy more pencils.” How many pencils and how many rulers does she buy?

Total pencils: 17

Total rulers: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

"I will buy 15 pencils."

15 * 8p = £1.20

15 pencils

"Then I will buy as many rulers as possible."

£5 - £1.20 = £3.80

£3.80/30p = 12 remainder 20p

12 rulers

"With my change, I will buy more pencils.”

20p/8p = 2 remainder 4 p

2 pencils

Total pencils: 17

Total rulers: 15
