Answer:

Kelsey can buy 9 books.

Explanation:

If Kelsey wants to buy as much books as possible with 30$, multiply 3$ by 9 (books) which is 27$.

30$-27$ is 3$ so she will have 3$ extra dollars to use for shipping. 2$ is the price for shipping so she will have an extra dollar.

I hope this was helpful! :) (Please rate/heart this if helpful)
