Solution

First, let's calculate the total cost of the items Layla has already bought:

  • The bicycle costs $319.28.
  • Each reflector costs 4.90andshebought3,sothetotalcostforthereflectorsis3∗4.90 and she bought 3, so the total cost for the reflectors is 3 * 4.90 = $14.70.
  • The gloves cost $37.94.

So, the total cost of these items is 319.28+319.28 + 14.70 + 37.94=37.94 = 371.92.

Layla started with 680,soafterbuyingtheseitems,shehas680, so after buying these items, she has 680 - 371.92=371.92 = 308.08 left.

Each biking outfit costs 77.02.Tofindouthowmanyoutfitsshecanbuy,wedividetheremainingmoneybythecostofeachoutfit:77.02. To find out how many outfits she can buy, we divide the remaining money by the cost of each outfit: 308.08 / $77.02.

This gives us approximately 4 outfits (the exact number is about 4.00, but she can't buy a fraction of an outfit).

So, Layla can buy 4 biking outfits with the money she has left.
