The price of mailing a small package is 0.32 $ for the 1st ounce and $0.21 for each additional ounce. Sandra put $1.16 to mail her package. How much did it weigh?


A. 4 ounces B. 5 ounces C. 6 ounces D. 7 ounces

Respuesta :

So you would subtract 0.32 from 1.16 because it is the initial amount. Then divide what you get from that (0.84) by .21. You're gonna get .04- but that's not the answer because you have to add the initial ounce that is worth $0.32. So The answer is B
The answer would be B because you would first subtract 0.32 from 1.16 so that would equal to one ounce and for the remaining of 1.16 you would divide or subtract by 0.21
