Question

samir and jillian share a phone plan. each month they can use a combined total of up to 8 gb of data. so far this month, samir has used 4.23 gb and jillian has used 2.89 gb. they want to know whether they still have data left to use. you found that samir and jillian have used about 7 gb of data. do samir and jillian have any data left to use? samir and jillian have used? 8 gb of data, so they? have data left to use.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total used data

First, we find the total data used by Samir and Jillian. Samir used \( 4.23 \) GB and Jillian used \( 2.89 \) GB. So we add these two amounts: \( 4.23 + 2.89 = 7.12 \) GB. But we are told they used about \( 7 \) GB (which is less than the actual \( 7.12 \), but the approximate value is given as \( 7 \)).

Step2: Compare used data with total limit

The total data limit is \( 8 \) GB. Since \( 7 < 8 \) (or even the actual \( 7.12 < 8 \)), the amount of data they have used is less than \( 8 \) GB.

Step3: Determine if data is left

If the used data is less than the total limit (\( 8 \) GB), then there is data left to use. So they used less than \( 8 \) GB, so they do have data left.
