Answer:

the answer is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount Ted wishes to spend this month is $5000.

Mahogany costs $450 per block, and he has already bought 7 blocks of spruce at $200 each.

So, money spent on spruce =  dollars

Money left after buying spruce =  dollars

Now as $450 will be spent on buying 1 block of mahogany.

So, $3600 will be spent
