Angela has £15.76. She buys as many bottles of drink costing £1.20 each as she can. How many does she buy and how much money does she have left?

WITHOUT CALC pls and show working out pls

Respuesta :

One way of doing it is to realize that if she buys 5 bottles, she would need exactly $6. $15.76 that she has includes 2 $6's, which means that she can buy at least 10 bottles. After these 10 bottles, she would have spent $12, therefore having $3.76 left. This is enough for 3 more bottles, costing $3.6 total. 3.76-3.6=$0.16, which is the amount she has left over, after buying a total of 13 bottles.
