a tarot card reader gets paid $90 for each deck he reads, and his goal is to
earn $2340 reading tarot cards this month. if he has already read 3 decks this
month, how many more decks must he read in order to reach his goal?

a. 30

b. 29

c. 26

d. 23

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total decks needed

Let \( x \) be total decks. Earnings: \( 90x = 2340 \). Solve \( x=\frac{2340}{90}=26 \).

Step2: Find additional decks

Already read 3. So more decks: \( 26 - 3 = 23 \).

Answer:

D. 23
