Let me get this rounded

Answer 2

Answer:

Aiden can have a maximum of 166 copies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aiden has $15.00 on his copy card.

Each time he uses the card to make a photocopy $0.06 is deducted from his card.

Means cost of 1 copy is $0.06

Let the total number of copies be = x

So, total copies will be = $0.06x$

He wants that there be at least $5.00 left on his card when he is finished.

So, the maximum number of copies he can have is given by $15-0.06x\geq 5$

Solving this we get;

$x\leq 166.66$ rounded to 166 pages.

Therefore, Aiden can have a maximum of 166 copies.
