John has $40 to spend at the yard sale. He buys six books for two dollars each. He would like to spend the rest of his money on model cars for his collection. If the cars cost seven dollars each how many cars can he buy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 model cars

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 40 spent 12 dollars buying six books (which cost 2 each), so now he has 28. The rest of the money he spends on model cars which cost 7 dollars each.

How many times 7 fits in 28?
28 / 7 = 4

so he can buy 4 model cars, see?
