How is this so hard?

$ 70 − $ 30 \color{#D61F06}\$70-\$30 is the money remaining after buying the cable. You want to see how many p r e m i u m c a b l e s \color{#D61F06} premium cables can be bought, which costs $ 5.95 \color{#3D99F6} \$5.95 . Now we get:

$ 70 − 29.99 5.95 \frac{\$70-29.99}{5.95} ≈ \approx 6 6
