To determine how many fish you can buy, you divide the available budget by the cost per fish:
Number of fish = Budget / Cost per fish
In this case, the budget is $40 and the cost per fish is $5.99. Plugging these values into the formula:
Number of fish = 40 / 5.99 ≈ 6.68
Therefore, you can buy a maximum of 6 fish for your aquarium.
a certain species of fish costs 5.99 each you spend at most 40$. How many of this type of fish can you buy for your aquarium?
