Jenny collects cans and bottles to take down to the recycling center. Each bottle weighs 6 ounces and each can weighs 2 ounces. Jenny can carry a total of 100 ounces. She collects 20 cans and as many bottles as she can carry. If she gets paid 10 cents per bottle and 3 cents per can, how much money does she make (in cents)? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
First, the weight of 20 cans is 20 cans * 2 oz per can = 40 oz. Thus, Jenny has the capacity to carry 100 oz - 40 oz = 60 oz of bottles. Jenny can carry 60 oz / 6 oz per bottle = 10 bottles. Jenny earns 10 bottles * 10 cents per bottle = 100 cents for the bottles. Jenny earns 20 cans * 3 cents per can = 60 cents for the cans. In total, she earns 100 cents + 60 cents = 160 cents. So, the answer is 160.
