Toni can carry up to 18 Ib in her backpack. Her lunch weighs 1 1b,her gym clothes weigh 2 1b, and her books (b) weigh 31b each.How many books can she carry in her backpack? Help please

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

She can carry 18 pounds in total. She already has her lunch and her gym clothes inside her bag, which take up 1 + 2 = 3 pounds. Since 3 pounds are taken, that leaves 18 - 3 = 15 pounds for her books. Each book is 3 pounds, so she can carry 15/3 = 5 books in her backpack.
