Answer:


(90)/(3.5)

Explanation:

Let x be the number of helium balloons they can buy

  1. Write it out: 35 + 3.50x = 125
  2. Subtract 35 from each side, so it now looks like this: 3.50x = 90
  3. Divide each side by 3.50 to cancel out the 3.50 next to x. It should now look like this: x =
    (90)/(3.5)

I hope this helps!
