Answer:

$6

Explanation:

After buying airplane model kit, he has left

95 - 9 = 86

We divide 86 by 8 and find the whole number. That would be:

86/8 = 10 remainder 6

The remainder is $6, so he is short of $2 to donate to another shelter. So he can donate to 10 shelters and have $6 remaining.

The first answer chioce is right, $6.
