Answer: He can buy 5 loaves of bread.
After buying 5 loaves 15 p will be left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, In the supermarket a loaf of bread costs 37p .
To find: How many loaves can David buy with a [tex]\pounds 2[/tex] coin?
Since [tex]\pounds 1=100\text{ pence}[/tex]
Then, [tex]\pounds 2=200\text{ pence}[/tex]
Number of loaves he can buy = (Amount he has) ÷ (Cost of a loaf of bread)
= 200 p ÷ 37 p
[tex]=5\dfrac{15}{37}[/tex]
i.e. he can buy 5 loaves of bread and 15 p will be left.
Hence, He can buy 5 loaves of bread.
After buying 5 loaves 15 p will be left.
