Under her cell phone plan, Piper pays a flat cost of $38.50 per month and $5 per gigabyte, or part of a gigabyte. (For example, if she used 2.3 gigabytes, she would have to pay for 3 whole gigabytes.) She wants to keep her bill under $60 per month. What is the maximum whole number of gigabytes of data she can use while staying within her budget?

Answer: 5 gigabytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Her budget is $60 and since she already spends a starting price of $38.5 you would use this equation:


60-38.5=21.5


Since you are left with $21.5 and it’s $5 per gigabyte you will use this equation:


21.5 /5= 4.3


This means she can get 4.3 gigabytes which is rounded to 5 while staying within her budget.
