Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

asked: how many 5kg bags did he buy

given:85kg, 12 bags, 5kg bags and 10kg bags

operation:division, addition

Let 85 be divided by 10

85/10=8

8=8 bags

remaining=80

(it means that, for every 8 ten kilogram bags, it can be summed as 80kilograms in total

can 80 be divided for another 10? no, that's why we need to seek for another available option, which is 5.

5kg=1 bag

80+5=85

for clarification

8+1=9

hence, The answer is 1
