Brady is selling candy bars for a school fundraiser to help pay for new sports uniforms. He gets paid $2 for every candy bar he sells, and he made a total of $90 on Saturday. Write an equation to show how many candy bars Brady sold on Saturday.

2x = $90

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Brady is selling candy bars for a school fundraiser to help pay for new sports uniforms and that he gets paid $2 for every candy bar he sells, and he made a total of $90 on Saturday.

The equation showing the number of candy bars Brady sold on Saturday goes thus:

Let the number of candy bars sold on Saturday be x.

Since each candy bar is sold for $2 and he made a total of $90, this means that the $90 gotten is the product of each candy bar and the amount sold which we represented by x. Therefore the equation will be:

2 × x = $90

2x = $90

We can further solve to get x.

2x = 90

x = 90/2

x = 45

That means 45 candy bars were sold.
