Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate remaining budget for Enzor

Total budget is $250 and she spends $180 on the Pumpkin - Ghoul. So the remaining budget for pumpkins is $250 - 180=70$.

Step2: Calculate number of pumpkins Enzor can buy

If each pumpkin costs $5.26, the number of pumpkins $n=\lfloor\frac{70}{5.26}\rfloor = 13$ (using floor function as we can't buy a fraction of a pumpkin).

For 2A, assume the Life - Eyes conversion kit costs $x$ and each strand of orange string lights costs $y$. Let the cost of each roll of crepe paper be $z$.

Step1: Calculate remaining budget for crepe - paper

The remaining budget $B = 100-(x + 2y)$.

Step2: Calculate number of crepe - paper rolls

The number of crepe - paper rolls $n=\lfloor\frac{100-(x + 2y)}{z}\rfloor$ (again, using floor function for whole number of rolls).

For 2B, the amount left over is already given as $33.53$ in the problem.

For 3A:

Step1: Calculate total budget

There are 28 students and each brings $5$. So the total budget $T=28\times5 = 140$.

For 3B:

Step1: Calculate number of groups

The number of groups $g=\frac{28}{4}=7$ groups.

Step2: Calculate number of pumpkins

The number of pumpkins is $2\times7 = 14$ pumpkins.

Step3: Calculate number of orange crepe - paper rolls

The number of orange crepe - paper rolls is $2\times7 = 14$ rolls.

Step4: Calculate number of black crepe - paper rolls

The number of black crepe - paper rolls is $1\times7 = 7$ rolls. Let the cost of a pumpkin be $p$, the cost of an orange crepe - paper roll be $o$, and the cost of a black crepe - paper roll be $b$. The total cost $C=14p + 14o+7b$.

For 3C: We need to know the values of $p$, $o$, and $b$ to compare the total cost $C$ with the budget of $140$. If $C\leq140$, the class will stick to the budget; if $C > 140$, the class will not stick to the budget.

Answer:

13 pumpkins 2A. $\lfloor\frac{100-(x + 2y)}{z}\rfloor$ rolls of crepe paper (where $x$ is cost of Life - Eyes conversion kit, $y$ is cost of each strand of orange string lights, $z$ is cost of each roll of crepe paper) 2B. $33.53$ 3A. $140$ 3B. $14p + 14o + 7b$ (where $p$ is cost of a pumpkin, $o$ is cost of an orange crepe - paper roll, $b$ is cost of a black crepe - paper roll) 3C. Cannot be determined without cost values of pumpkin, orange crepe - paper roll, and black crepe - paper roll.
