a box contains $120,000 in jewels. One diamond in the box is worth $12000. If each of the other jewels are worth $2160, how many total jewels are inside the box, including the diamond?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1 jewel

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a equation

We know that there is one diamond and  x numbers of $2160 jewels so we get....

120,000 = 120,000 + 2160 x

0 = 2160x

x = 0

But we have 1 diamond so  0 + 1 = 1

(honestly i think you read the question wrong because 1 jewel seems way too small, reread it and see if you wrote your question correctly)
