Question

Mrs. Ham is planning a party for students who have met their goal of reading seven books during the most recent eight weeks of virtual school. To celebrate this, she decided to have a party on the first day back to school. Using a total of $112, she plans to get pizzas that cost $12 each and drinks that cost $0.50 each. If she purchases four times as many drinks as pizzas, how many of each should she buy?

Answer 1

Answer:

8 pizzas and 32 drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

12 times 8 equals 96
