Question

A sponsor of a youth baseball team buys new hats and jerseys for the players on the team. Each hat costs $10 and each jersey costs $20. The sponsor also donates $200 to help pay for umpires. The sponsor spends a total of $650. How many players are on the team?

Answer 1

$450 for hats and jerseys (650 - 200)

$30 per player for hat and jersey ... $450 / $30 = ? players

Answer 2

$650 - $200 (donation for umps)
= $450 (cost for hats and jerseys)

$10 + $20 = $30, so the sponsor donates $30 to each player

$450 / $30
= 15
15 players on the team

Answer 3
