Step-by-step explanation:

You need to subtract

$25.00

-

$9.50

Then, divide your answer by $3.75, if it is a decimal, then round down.

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with $25.

Now subtract the cost of the necklace, $9.50.

$25 - $9.50 = $15.50

Dani has $15.50 left after buying the necklace.

Each pair of earrings costs $3.75.

To find the number of $3.75 pairs of earrings she can buy with $15.50, we divide $15.50 by $3.75.

$15.50/$3.75 =  4.13333...

Since you cannot buy a fraction of a pair of earrings, we must round 4.1333... down to 4.

4 pairs of earrings.

because they could drop even lower..
