Jason wants to use his earnings from Monday and Tuesday for online movie rentals. The movies cost $2.96 each to rent. How many movies can Jason rent?

Jason can rent
movies.

i hope i did this right i didn't understand that well but i came to the conclusion of 4 movies since i figured the second numbers were jason not samuel

Step-by-step explanation:

11.6 x 0.40= 4.64

10.6 x 0.40= 4.24

9.1 x 0.40= 3.64

4.64 + 4.24 +3.64= 12.52/2.96 =4.22972972973 then round it down to 4 since you can't have a fraction of a movie

I multiplied by 0.40 because thats how much the pay by pound so i figured the second number set was pound and it said pounds were jason then i divided by 2.96 because it's the cost per movie

please tell me if it's wrong
