To find the number of helicopters the government will be able to buy, we divide the total budget by the cost of each helicopter:
Number of helicopters = Total budget / Cost per helicopter
Number of helicopters = $1,440,000 / $120,000
Number of helicopters = 12
Therefore, the government will be able to buy 12 new helicopters.
The government budgeted $1,440,000 to buy new helicopters. The cost of each helicopter is $120,000. How many new helicopters will the government be able to buy?
