To determine the number of bags Damari needs to sell, we subtract his current earnings from his goal:
$85 - $40 = $45
To find the number of bags, we divide the remaining amount by the price per bag:
$45 / $3 = 15 bags
Therefore, Damari needs to sell 15 bags of popcorn to reach his goal.
To determine how many bags Damari needs to sell, we can subtract his current earnings from his goal:
Goal - Current Earnings = Number of bags to sell
$85 - $40 = $45
Since each bag of popcorn is sold for $3, we can divide the total amount needed by the price per bag:
$45 / $3 = 15
So Damari needs to sell 15 bags of popcorn to reach his goal.
To determine how many bags Damari needs to sell to make his goal, we can use arithmetic.
First, we need to calculate the amount of money Damari needs to earn to reach his goal:
Goal = $85
Starting amount = $40
Amount needed = Goal - Starting amount = $85 - $40 = $45
Next, we need to determine how many bags Damari needs to sell to earn $45. Since each bag costs $3, we can divide the amount needed by the cost per bag to find the number of bags:
Number of bags = Amount needed / Cost per bag = $45 / $3 = 15 bags
Therefore, Damari needs to sell 15 bags of popcorn to reach his goal of earning $85.
