Afamily of five people has $200 to spend on fishing rods and fishing licenses. they spend a total of $20 on licenses. assuming they buy 5 identical rods, what is the maximum amount they can spend on each rod? (include only numbers, not words or dollar signs, in your answer.)

The amount of money left after spending on the fisihing licenses:
=200-20
=$180

The maximum total amount they spend on fishing rod is $180,and if they buy 5 identical rod,the maximum value of a fishing rod would be:
180÷5
=$36

Here's how you can do it in one equation with no words/dollar sign:

(200-20)÷5
=36

Hope it helps! Sorry for writing a lot but I hope you can understand.

What’s your question.
