    5 books

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that Toni carries upto 18 lbs in her backpack.

    The maximum weight Toni can carry is 18 lbs.

    Of these 18 lbs, already lunch of 1 lb and gym clothes of 2 lbs are included.

    hence available for books is only the remaining 15 lbs.

    Total weight in backpack = 18 lbs (Maximum)

    Weight of lunch = 1 lb

    Weight of her gym clothes = 2 lb

    Hence maximum weight available for books = 18 - (1+2) = 15 lbs

    Weight of one book = 3 lbs.

    No of books she can carry = 15/3 = 5 books
