Answer:

6 bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 38 from 75 to represent the remaining amount of Matthew's money.

[tex]75-38=37.[/tex]

Matthew has $37 left over from buying flowers.

Divide 37 by 6 to represent how many bags of soil he can buy.

[tex]37\div6=6\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Matthew can only buy 6 bags of soil, 1/6 isn't included because you can't buy a fraction of a bag.
