Answer:

15 roses

Explanation:

90 (Amount Santo wants to spend)

15 (Shipping fee)

You first subtract Shipping Fee from the total amount Santo wants to spend

90-15=75

Next it's time to figure out how many roses he can buy with the $75

Each roses is $5, so you divide the left over money after shipping by the price of the rose.

75÷5=15
