Laura is the fund-raising manager for a local charity. She is ordering caps for an upcoming charity walk. The company that makes the caps charges $6 per cap plus a $25 shipping fee. Laura has a budget of $1,000. What is the greatest number of caps she can buy? A.162 A. 162 B.163 B. 163 C.166 C. 166 D.167 D. 167

Option B, 163 caps.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of caps are = $6 per cap.

Shipping charge = $25

The total budget of the Laura = $1000

Since the $25 is shipping charge so subtract it from the budget = 1000 – 25 = $975

Here $975 will be used to buy the caps at the price of $6 per cap.

Thus, the number of caps = budget after subtracting the shipping fee / per cap price

Total caps = $975 / 6

Total caps = 162.5 or 163 caps.
