Gwen and max have 5.30, and they want to divide it equally. Max says he and gwen cannot get equal amounts of money because 5 one dollar bills cannot be divided evenly. Do you agree with max? Explain.

The statement by Max is Right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given question is INCOMPLETE.

After selling some old books and toys, Gwen and her brother Max had 5 one-dollar bills, 6 quarters, and 8 dimes.

Max and Gwen decide to divide the money equally. Max said that he and Gwen cannot get even amounts of money because 5 one-dollar bills cannot be divided evenly. Do you agree with Max? Explain.

Here, the number of 1 dollar bills  = 5

The number of quarters  = 6

The number of dimes  = 8

As we know, 1 quarter  =  $0.25

So, 6 quarters  = 6 x ( $0.25)  = $ 1.5

Also, 1 dime  =  $0.1

So, 8 dimes  = 8 x ( $0.1)  = $ 0.08

So, the total amount they both have :

$ 5 + $ 1.5 + $ 0.08 = $6.58

Now, since they HAVE no EQUAL AMOUNT of denominations.

Also, $5 is divisible by 2 BUT not in the FORM of 5 $1 bills.

Hence, 5 notes of one dollar CANNOT be divided as $2.5 each.

Hence, agreed. The statement by Max is Right.
