alicia had $22 to spend on pencils if each pencil cost $1.50 how many pencils can she buy TELL ME HOW YOU GOT ANSWER

Answer: 14 pencilsStep-by-step explanation:Each pencil costs $1.50, so you have to see how many pencils you can buy with $22. To begin, multiply 1.50 until it gets close to the money limit, which is $22. $1.50*2 pencils= 3 dollars spent$1.50*3 pencils= 4.50 spent$1.50*4 pencils= 6 dollars spent$1.50*5 pencils= 7.50 spent. $1.50*6 pencils= 9 dollars spent$1.50*7 pencils= 10.50 spent $1.50*8 pencils= 12 dollars spent $1.50*9 pencils= 13.50 dollars spent$1.50*10 pencils= 15 dollars spent$1.50*11 pencils= 16.50 dollars spent$1.50*12 pencils= 18 dollars spent $1.50*13 pencils= 19.50 spent$1.50*14 pencils= 21 dollars spent This is where you have to stop even though you haven't spent all of the 22 dollars yet because if you buy one more pencil, then the total will cost $22.50, which is over the budget.
