Answer :
B - 13
Okay, we know that Mark brought 1 notebook and the totally is 6.91 while one pencil costs $0.42.
x= number of pencils he brought.
we know the price of 1 notebook + the cost of pencils times the numbers of pencils he brought = total cost.
So the equation will be:
1.45 + 0.42x = 6.91 subtract 1.45 on both sides.
0.42x = 5.46 Then we solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.42
x= 13
So the number of pencils he brought is 13.

So the number of pencils he brought is 13.
1. 6.91 - 1.45 = 5.46
You subtract the notebook from the total cost
2. 5.46 / 0.42 = 13
You divide the cost of a pencil from the left over amount of money to see how many pencils Mark bought
3. Mark bought 13 pencils
