Option 1:
Mrs. Weeks could buy 10 footballs ($80), 7 basketballs ($63), and 4 softballs ($20).
Total cost: $80 + $63 + $20 = $163 (over budget)

Option 2:
Mrs. Weeks could buy 6 footballs ($48), 9 basketballs ($81), 11 baseballs ($77), and 10 softballs ($50).
Total cost: $48 + $81 + $77 + $50 = $256 (over budget)

Note: Both options exceed the budget of $150, so Mrs. Weeks would need to adjust the quantities accordingly in order to stay within her budget.
how would i state it with coins
Option 1:
Mrs. Weeks could buy 10 footballs (10 x $8 = $80) using 80 one-dollar bills, 7 basketballs (7 x $9 = $63) using 60 one-dollar bills and 3 quarters, and 4 softballs (4 x $5 = $20) using 20 one-dollar bills.
Total cost: $80 + $63 + $20 = $163 (over budget)

Option 2:
Mrs. Weeks could buy 6 footballs (6 x $8 = $48) using 40 one-dollar bills, 9 basketballs (9 x $9 = $81) using 80 one-dollar bills and 1 quarter, 11 baseballs (11 x $7 = $77) using 50 one-dollar bills and 2 quarters, and 10 softballs (10 x $5 = $50) using 50 one-dollar bills.
Total cost: $48 + $81 + $77 + $50 = $256 (over budget)

Again, note that both options exceed the budget of $150, so adjustments need to be made. Also note that actual coins may not be necessary for such transactions, but they can be used as manipulatives to help visualize the problem.
