The monthly fee for an online television and movie service is $9.80. The cost of viewing television shows online is included in the membership fee, but there is an additional fee of $1.50 to rent each movie online. For one month, Lakeisha's memebership and movie rental fees were $15.80. How many movies did Lakeisha rent online that month?

Respuesta :


15.80-9.80 = 6

6/1.50 = 4

She rented 4 movies

Answer:

She rented 4 movies.

Explanation:

The case says that the movie service has a monthly fee of $9.80 and that for one month the membership and movie rental fees were $15.80. So, you have to subtract the monthly fee from the total cost for one month:

$15.80-$9.80= $6

So, Lakeisha spent $6 renting movies and to determine the number of movies  rented, you have to divide that amount by the fee for renting each movie that is $1.50:

$6/$1.50= $4
