Question 301509: A student council collecs aluminum pop tabs to raise money to purchase a wheelchair. A company buys the pop tabs for $0.88 per kilogram. If 1267 pop tabs have a mass of one pound, how many pop tabs are needed to purchase a wheelchair worth $1500?
Hint: 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are no companies that pay a better price for pop tabs than for the whole can.
As a matter of fact the tabs would be worth less. because of the added value of the can (CRV in California or deposit in other states).
