Answer:

6

Explanation:

Divide 3 and 4 to find how much one bagel is.

3/4= 0.75

One bagel is $0.75

Now, divide 0.75 and 4.50 to find how many bagels you can get with $4.50.

4.50/0.75=6

Final answer

6 bagels

Answer:

He can buy 6 bagels.

Explanation:

In order to figure out how much each bagel is, you need to divide $3.00 by 4. This gives you .75 because 3.00/4=75. Each bagel is therefore $0.75. Now, in order to find how many bagels you can buy with $4.50, you have to divide 4.50 by 0.75. The equation is 450/75=6. You can buy 6 bagels with $4.50.

Let me know if you need any more help. Have a nice day. :)
