To find out how much Jackson spent on popcorn, we need to subtract the amounts he spent on tickets, candy, and drinks from the total amount he spent at the movies.
Jackson spent $56 in total.
He spent $22 on tickets.
He spent $8 on candy.
He spent $9 on drinks.
To find out how much he spent on popcorn, we can use the equation:
Total amount spent - Amount spent on tickets - Amount spent on candy - Amount spent on drinks = Amount spent on popcorn
$56 - $22 - $8 - $9 = Amount spent on popcorn
$56 - $22 - $8 - $9 = $17
Therefore, Jackson spent $17 on popcorn.
