1. Problem Description
The problem contains two parts.
Part 1: John buys 3 bunches of daffodils. Each bunch costs 99p. We need to find the total cost.
Part 2: Karpal has £4.00 to spend on roses. Each rose costs 40p. We need to find how many roses she can buy.
2. Solution Steps
Part 1:
To find the total cost of the daffodils, we need to multiply the number of bunches by the cost per bunch.
Total cost = Number of bunches * Cost per bunch
Total cost
Total cost
Since there are 100p in £1, we can convert 297p to pounds:
Part 2:
To find the number of roses Karpal can buy, we need to divide the total amount of money she has by the cost per rose.
Number of roses = Total amount / Cost per rose
We need to make sure the units are the same. £4.00 is equal to 400p.
Number of roses
Number of roses
3. Final Answer
Part 1: John pays £2.97 altogether.
Part 2: Karpal can buy 10 roses for £4.00.
