How many inspection stickers can be bought for $12.60 if each sticker costs 30 cents?

The correct answer is: 42

To determine how many inspection stickers can be bought for $12.60 when each sticker costs 30 cents, it's necessary to first convert the total amount of money into cents for easier calculations. $12.60 is equivalent to 1260 cents. Next, you can divide the total amount of cents by the cost per sticker. Since each sticker costs 30 cents, you calculate: 1260 cents ÷ 30 cents per sticker = 42 stickers. Thus, the correct answer reflects that you can purchase a total of 42 inspection stickers with $12.60. This captures how to perform division in practical contexts, such as budgeting for items based on their individual costs.
