Peter is at a lumber yard. he gets 2 free boxes of nails for every 10 boards he buys. write an expression for the number of boxes of nails peter will get if he buys n boards. if each box has 100 nails, explain how to write an expression to find how many nails peter will have if he purchases 90 boards.

A. The number of 10-boards Peter bought is equal to n divided by 10. Then, each of the 10-boxes will get two boxes of nails. The number of boxes of nails that Peter will have after buying n boards will be,

    N = (2)(n/10)

Simplifying,

   N = n/5

b. If the number of boards are 90 then,

     N2 = (90/10)(2)(100 nails/box)
     N2 = 1800

1800

Ithink you're supposed to multiply 12.50 which is how much he makes per hour and then multiply it by each number then add whats left togrther and there's your answer
