Comment

This question requires that you round up no matter what the remainder is. If you round down following the rounding rules, you will not have enough buttons.

Part A

Givens

Total = 38 buttons

Number of buttons in a package = 8

Solution

Packages = 38 / 8 = 4.75

You must round up so she will need 5 packages.

Part B

She had to buy 40 buttons from 5 packages.

1 package contains 8 button

The cost of 8 buttons is 3.44

The cost of 1 button 3.44/8 = .43 dollars or 43 cents
