A. $30.55
B. $3.20
C. $12.40
D. $9.45

Answer 1

The cost of the 15 sports drinks is 15 * $1.25 = $<<15*1.25=18.75>>18.75
The cost of the 20 oranges is 20 * $0.59 = $<<20*0.59=11.8>>11.80
The total cost of the sports drinks and oranges is $18.75 + $11.80 = $<<18.75+11.8=30.55>>30.55
Mrs. Martinez had $40 - $30.55 = $<<40-30.55=9.45>>9.45 left.
The answer is D. $9.45. Answer: \boxed{D}.
