    You have $37 to plant garden. If you spend $12.25 on seeds, how many packs of vegetable plants can you buy for 2.75 each?

    How much do we have to spend on plants?
    $37 - 12.25 = $24.75

    Calculate how many vegetable plants we can buy. Set up an equation where x = vegetable plants
    2.75x = 24.75

    Divide each side by 2.75
    x = 9
