A karate studio charges $35 for the first course and $22.50 for each course after that, even if the student leaves the course early. Cena paid $170 for her son to take courses. How many courses did he take?

Answer:

He took 7 courses

Explanation:

Subtract money spent $170 by cost of first class $35 = $135

Divide by cost of each following class $135 ÷ 22.50 = 6 more classes in addition to the first one.
