Victor has been saving his earnings from his lemonade stand. Victor has 90 dollars to spend. If He buys a new hat for 17 dollars, how many scarves can He buy with the remaining spending money if they cost 6 dollars each?
To find out how many scarves Victor can buy with his remaining spending money, we need to subtract the cost of the hat from the total amount of money he has.
Victor's total money = $90
Cost of the hat = $17
Remaining spending money = Total money - Cost of the hat
Remaining spending money = $90 - $17
Remaining spending money = $73
Now that we have the remaining spending money, we can find out how many scarves Victor can buy by dividing the remaining spending money by the cost of each scarf.
Cost of each scarf = $6
Number of scarves Victor can buy = Remaining spending money / Cost of each scarf
Number of scarves Victor can buy = $73 / $6
Number of scarves Victor can buy ≈ 12.16
Therefore, Victor can buy approximately 12 scarves with his remaining spending money, assuming he can't buy a fraction of a scarf.
