Martha wants to buy a new bike that costs $79, including tax. She currently has $15 saved. She began a dog walking business to earn the remaining money needed to buy the bike. She charges $5 for each dog she walks. What is the fewest number of dogs that Martha needs to walk to have enough money to buy the bike?
Help Me Please
(79 - 15) / 5 = ________ dogs
Remember, she can't walk a fraction of a dog.
So the answer is 64/5=12.8 so basically it would be 12 or 13
Which is it? 12 or 13? Only one of these answers is correct.
Its fewest which is 12
But 12 * 5 is 60. That isn't enough.
Yes. But the bike costs $79.
She needs $64.
