Hi!!! I'm having a lot of trouble doing this problem can you help? Thanks a lot!!!!! 💕

Question

Tim is taking the train to Seattle to visit his grandparents. He was given $5.00 to spend on snacks and reading materials. Granola bars cost $0.75 dollars each and a newspaper is $1.25. If Tim buys a newspaper paper how many granola bars can he get?

Answer 1

After buying the newspaper he has $5.00 - $1.25 = $3.75 left over to buy granola bars

To find out how many granola bars he can buy, divided the $3.75 by the price of each bar.

$3.75/$0.75 = 5

So, he has enough to buy 5 granola bars.
