It costs $5 to get into the state park, plus $12 per night for you to camp there. If you have a total of $137 to
spend, how many nights can you camp there?

Respuesta :

Answer:

11 nights

Step-by-step explanation:

Our total budget: $137

First, let's deduct the cost to enter the park.

137 - 5 = 132

We have $132 to spend on the hotel.

Since the cost is $12 per night, we need to find out how many times $12 can go into $132. This is done using division.

132 / 12 = 11

As we can see, we can pay $12 eleven times until our money runs out.

Thus, we can stay at the camp for 11 nights!

Answer: 11 nights
