Answer 1

17

Explanation:

We know:

The total bill was $241

The paint sets cost $105

Each sketchbook is $8

First, subtract the cost of the paint sets from the total bill. That leaves the entire cost of all of the sketch books.

241-105=136

Next, divide the cost of the sketch books by 8 to find the cost of one sketchbook.

136/8=17

Therefore, Mr. Benito bought 17 sketchbooks.
