Question

You have $25 to spend on snacks for movie night with 4 of your friends. If individual boxes of raisins are $1.50 and all 5 of you want to buy your own box, find the amount of money that remains per person for popcorn and a drink.(1 point)

Answer 1

Each box costs $1.50, so 5 boxes cost 5 × $1.50 = $7.50.
Remaining money = $25 − $7.50 = $17.50.
Per person remaining = $17.50 ÷ 5 = $3.50.
