When the move is half way over popcorn sells for half price full popcorn is 3.50 and drinks are 1.35 what is the cost of buying 3 popcorns and 3 drinks when the movie is half way over

1 answer

If popcorn sells for half price during the movie, then the price of one popcorn would be:

\[ \text{Half Price Popcorn} = \frac{3.50}{2} = 1.75 \]

The cost of one drink remains at \(1.35\).

Now, to find the total cost for 3 popcorns and 3 drinks:

  1. Cost of 3 popcorns: \[ 3 \times 1.75 = 5.25 \]

  2. Cost of 3 drinks: \[ 3 \times 1.35 = 4.05 \]

Now, add the two totals together: \[ 5.25 + 4.05 = 9.30 \]

Therefore, the total cost of buying 3 popcorns and 3 drinks when the movie is halfway over is $9.30.
