Answer:

Carmen bought 5 pounds of coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of buying coffee is $8.44 per pound. Let us assume she bought x pound of coffee, this means that she spent $8.44x on coffee.

She went to the coffee store with $80 gift card and left with $37.80, this means that after spending $8.44x from the initial $80, she had $37.80. To find the number of pounds she bought, we are to use the following equation:

80 - 8.44x = 37.80

8.44x = 80 - 37.80

8.44x = 42.2

x = 42.2/ 8.44 = 5

x = 5 pounds.
