1. **Stating the problem:** Fathi has 1.10 in his printing account. Each sheet of paper costs 0.25. He wants to print a 47-page PDF. He prints on both sides and 2 pages per side. 2. **Understanding the printing setup:** - Each sheet has 2 sides. - Each side prints 2 pages. - So, each sheet prints $2 \times 2 = 4$ pages. 3. **Calculate the number of sheets needed:** - Total pages: 47 - Pages per sheet: 4 - Number of sheets needed = $\lceil \frac{47}{4} \rceil = \lceil 11.75 \rceil = 12$ 4. **Calculate total cost:** - Cost per sheet: 0.25 - Total cost = $12 \times 0.25 = 3.00$ 5. **Compare cost with account balance:** - Account balance: 1.10 - Total cost: 3.00 - Since 3.00 > 1.10, Fathi does not have enough money to print all 47 pages with this method. **Final answer:** Fathi needs 12 sheets costing 3.00, which exceeds his 1.10 balance, so he cannot print all 47 pages with his current balance.
