Find

maximum number of lessons the two can take if the total amount spent for lessons and surfboards is at most $780

Explanation

Dylan and Dusty plan to take weekly surfing lessons together.

they spend $150 on each surfboards.

so , they spend = $150 * 2 = $300

the total amount spent for lessons and surfboards is at most $780.

After spending on two new surfboards the money left = $780-$300=$480

the charges for both in 2-hours classes = $80

maximum number of lessons they take = 480/80=6

final Answer

maximum number of lessons they take =6
