Answer:

The least amount of pencils that can be bought is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Budget=$50

the cost of one binder= $7

then 5 binders will cost= 7*5= $35

the balance will be 50-35= $15

Step two:

let the number of pencils that can be bought be x

The cost of each pencil = $2

the remaining amount from the budget to get pencils is $15

Hence the number of pencils that can be bought is

x=15/2

x=7.5

The least amount of pencils that can be bought is 7
