Answer:

You can buy a maximum of 13 erasers/pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your total is 20 dollars. The book cost 8.99, so you take away that amount from 20, getting you 11.01. You have $11.01 left. Then you divide your total (11.01) by the price of each eraser (0.79). This gets you 13.9367088608. Since thats not an even number, you have to round down because you don't want a broken pencil?eraser.
