Alejandro needs to buy bird seed from the local pet store for his parrots. A
Gnesinka [82]

First take note he only has $20 and the bag he must buy is $12.55. Also the loose seeds are $1.49 per pound.

To solve subtract 12.55 from 20

20-12.55=7.45

So after buying the 10 lb bag he has $7.45 left now divide that by 1.49

7.45/1.49=5

So after buying the 10 lb bag he can also buy 5 lb of the loose seeds!
