Answer 1

To determine how many bags Damari needs to sell to make his goal, we need to find the difference between his goal of $85 and the $40 he already has.

$85 - $40 = $45

Now, we can divide the remaining amount needed by the price per bag of popcorn to find the number of bags Damari needs to sell.

$45 / $3 = 15

Therefore, Damari needs to sell 15 bags of popcorn to reach his goal.
