Katrina has 120 dollars. Let the number of pairs of flip flops be x
She paid 60 dollars for new suitcase and spent on 10 dollars pairs of flip flops.
Then suitcase amount + 10(number of flip flops) should be less than or equal to 120
60+10x120
Now, solve for x:
60+10x120
Subtract 60 from both sides
10x60
Divide both sides by 10
x6
