Answer 1

!5 Canvases. 350-125=225/25=15

Answer 2

15 canvasses

Explanation:

the total number of budget = $350

Selling Price for display board = $125

Selling Price for each canvass = $15

Calculating the number of canvases that would be bought

The total amount spent on canvases would be

Total budget - the amount spent on display board

Amount spent on canvases = $350 - $125 = $225

The number of canvases bought = Total amount spent canvases/ selling price for each canvass

The number of canvass bough = $225 / $15

The number of canvass bough = 15 canvasses

Therefore the total number of canvasses bought by the art club would be 15 canvasses.
