(6)(7) = 42, which is how much he spent on the plastic bowls.
take the total of money spent and subtract how much ALL SEVEN of the PLASTIC bowls cost, then divide by 6 to get the amount of steel bowls bought. like shown:
136.50 - 42 = 94.5
94.5 / 10.50 = 9
So, Malcom bought o stainless steel dog bowls.
