The Stop and Shop store and Market Place Store both sell plastic plates in packages of fifteen for five dollars and ninety-nine cents per package. How many packages of plastic plates does the Webster family need to buy? What is the cost of plates for the barbecue?

-The Webster family needs to buy 7 packages.

-The cost of the plates is $41.93.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate amount of packages that the Webster family need to buy, you have to divide the amount of people by the number of plates in each package:

100/15= 6.66

According to this, as they will need more than 6 packages, the Webster family needs to buy 7 packages to have one plastic plate for each person at the barbecue.

Then, the cost of the plates for the barbecue would be calculated by multiplying the price of each package for the number of packages needed:

$5.99*7= $41.93

The cost of the plates is $41.93.
