Answer:

30 balloons

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of banner = $ 35

Remaining amount after paying for banner = 125 - 35 = $90

Number of balloons = Remaining amount ÷ cost of one balloon

= 90 ÷ 3

= 30

Answer:

30 baloons

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Remove the price of the banner from the total amount you can spend. You should then end up with $90

2. Divide 90 by 3, because each balloon costs $3. You should end up with 30.
