  1. Answer:

    2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2 pencils = (0.24×2) = £0.48

    2 pens costs = (0.43×2) = £0.86

    3 sharpneners costs = (0.88×3) = £2.64

    received change = £0.82

    total = (0.48+0.86+2.64+0.82) = £4.80

    Rest of the money = (7.00 – 4.80) = £2.20

    number of notebooks = (2.20/1.10) = 2
