Answer:

3 Faygo's with $6.60.

Explanation:

Let's first calculate the price of one Faygo:

Price of 1 Faygo = 22 / 10
Price of 1 Faygo = $2.20

Now, we need to find out how many Faygo's James can buy with $6.60:

Number of Faygo's = Amount of money / Price of 1 Faygo
Number of Faygo's = 6.60 / 2.20
Number of Faygo's = 3

Therefore, James can buy 3 Faygo's with $6.60.

Answer:

To find out how many faygos James can buy, we need to divide the total amount he has by the price of each Faygo.

Remember, if you don't know something you can always put an X in your equation because we're going to solve it anyways. We know that 10 Faygo's cost $22, so in order to find the price of 1 Faygo we have to divide $22/10 = $2.20.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

$2.20x = $6.60

Simplifying (by putting x at the front of the equation), we get:

x = $6.60 / $2.20

x = 3

So James can buy 3 Faygo's for $6.60.:)
