To determine how many bags Damar needs to sell, we can subtract his current amount ($40) from his goal amount ($85):
$85 - $40 = $45
Next, we need to divide the remaining amount he needs to earn ($45) by the price per bag ($3):
$45 / $3 = 15
Therefore, Damar needs to sell 15 bags of popcorn to make his goal.
The correct answer is 15.
Damar is selling popcorn for $3 a bag. He already has $40, and his goal is to earn $85 total. Use arithmetic to determine how many bags he needs to sell to make his goal. (1 point)
