My question is: Jaco wants to buy Christmas gifts for his 8 friends that are worth $9 each. Also, he wants to buy gifts for his mother and father that are of the same amount. He has a $100 budget to buy all gifts. How much is Jaco's budget for each of his mother and father's gift? Your thoughts:

Jaco will spend a total of $9 x 8 = $72 for his 8 friends' gifts. He will be left with $100 - $72 = $28 for his mother and father's gift. So, Jaco's budget for each of his mother and father's gift is $28 / 2 = $14. The final answer: 14.
