Question

Members of a baseball team raised $1479.25 to go to a tournament. They rented a bus for $800.50 and budgeted $45.25 per player for meals. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine pp, the number of players the team can bring to the tournament.

Answer 1

Answer:

15 players

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you might want to exclude out how much it cost to rent a bus.

1479.25 - 800.50 = 678.75

After that, the remaining amount of money is how much money is spent altogether for the basketball player's meal, since each player had the same budget for the meal, it made the question easier.

678.75 ÷ 45.25 = 15
