Timpani bought a video game console and some games for $350. The video game console cost $200. Each game cost $25. How many games did Timpani purchase?

1 Answer

6

Explanation:

Let's first take the cost of the console out from how much was spent:

#$350-$200=$150#

Notice that $350 was spent in total and $200 of that was the console, meaning that the remaining $150 was spent on games.

Each game is $25. We can divide how much was spent by the cost of a game to find out the number of games purchased:

#($150)/($25)=6#
