Our middle school is having a fall carnival. Admission into the carnival is $3 and each game inside the carnival costs $.25. Write an inequality that represents the possible number of games that can be played having $10. What is the maximum number of games that can be played?(1 point)
Let's represent the number of games as "g". Each game costs $0.25, so the cost of g games would be 0.25g.
To find the maximum number of games that can be played with $10, we need to set up an inequality.
The admission into the carnival is $3, so the total amount of money available for games is $10 - $3 = $7.
Therefore, we have the inequality:
0.25g ≤ 7
To find the maximum number of games, we need to solve this inequality for g.
Dividing both sides of the inequality by 0.25, we get:
g ≤ 28
So, the maximum number of games that can be played is 28.
