Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = every day he rented the kayak

Since the store charges $60 for each day, multiply x by 60 like this: 60x

They also have $25 on top of that; 60x + 25

This all has to equal $325; 60x + 25 = 325

To solve for x, subtract 25 from both sides

60x + 25 = 325

       - 25    - 25

60x = 300

Divide both sides by 60

60x/60 = 300/60

x = 5

This means Tobias rented the kayak for 5 days
