Answer:

125 chips

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, a bag of potato chips costs $6.99 and comes with 87 chips. The cost of 87 chips is $6.99.

⇒ In $1, we can buy [tex]\dfrac{87}{6.99}[/tex] chips

We need to find the no of chips if you has $10.

In $10, no of chips are [tex]\dfrac{87}{6.99}\times 10=124.46[/tex]

Rounding to a whole no,

n = 125

Hence, 125 chips can be brought if you has $10.
