Answer:

He can buy 10 candy bars

Explanation:

The total cost is the cost per candy bar times the number of candy bars

We know he spent $6.00 and the cost of each candy bar is $.60

total cost = cost per bar * number of bars

$6.00 = $.60 * n

Divide by .6

6/.6 =.6/.6 n

10=n

He can buy 10 candy bars
