NEED HELP SUPER QUICKLY MAKE SURE TO SHOW WORK AND THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND IT AND THAT IT IS CORRECT AND MAKES SENSE, I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO BEST ANSWER
Mrs. Mac went to the movies with friends and bought a large drink for $6 and boxes of candy for $3 apiece. She spent a total of $18. The equation that models this situation is:
6+3=18
where c is the number of boxes of candy bought.
How many boxes of candy did Mrs. Mac buy?

Answer 1

6+3c=18
3c=18-6
3c=12
divide each side by 3
c=4

Answer 2

So what you have to do is subtract 6$ from 18$ to get 12$ then you divide 12 by 3$ to get 4 boxes so c=4
