A bakery sells a box of 12 cookies for $10.50 and charges $0.24 for each additional cookie. If Marshall has $20.00 to buy the box of cookies and additional cookies, what is the maximum number of additional cookies he can buy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

39 (possibly 40 if you were told to round UP)

Step-by-step explanation:

$20.00-$10.50 = 9.50.

Now, divide -

9.5/0.24 = 39.58333333
