Joe has collections of 35 DVD movies. He received eight of them as gifts. Jobot the rest of his movies over three years. If he bought the same number of movies each year, how many movies did Joe by last year

Hello!

Let's subtract the eight DVDs Joe received as gifts, because he didn't buy them on his own.

35 - 8 = 27

Now, divide the remaining CDs by the 3 years he collected his DVDs in.

27 ÷ 3 = 9

A N S W E R:

Joe bought 9 DVDs last year.

Good day!
