#B = 40 " books"#

Explanation:

So, what we want to do is find the number of packages we can buy for $64,00 and then multiply that number by the number of books in each package, which is 5.

To find how many packages (P) we can buy with $64.00 with each package costing $8.00 we divide the values:

#P=($64.00)/($8.00) = 8 " packages"#

Now we multiply the number of packages by the number of books in each package, which is 5.

#B = 8" packages" xx 5 " books per package" = 40 " books"#
