Important info:
- Sophia has $6 to spend on lunch
- Concession stands sell sodas for $0.75
- All of their food items for $1.50
- Pretend she buys one drink
- Find the maximum amount of food she can buy now.
Process:
Subtract 600 and 75 since $6 = 600 cents
600 - 75 = 525
So Sophia has $5 and 25 cents left
Each food item is worth $1.50 which is 150 cents and she currently has $5.25 which is 525 cents
So divided 525 and 150
525 / 150 = 3.5
Unfortunately she can't buy half of a food item so the answer would be 3
Final Answer:
3, Sophia can buy 3 food items after buying 1 drink
