When the movie is half over, popcorn sells for half price. Full price popcorn is $3.50, and drinks are $1.35. Determine the cost for purchasing 3 orders of popcorn and 3 drinks when the movie is half over.
3*3.50/2 + 3*1.35 = 9.30
To determine the cost of purchasing 3 orders of popcorn and 3 drinks when the movie is half over, we need to calculate the cost of each item separately and then add them together.
Given that full price popcorn is $3.50, and when the movie is half over, popcorn sells for half price, we can calculate the cost of each order of popcorn.
Cost of each order of popcorn when the movie is half over = (1/2) * $3.50 = $1.75
Since we need to purchase 3 orders of popcorn, the total cost for the popcorn = $1.75 * 3 = $5.25
The cost of each drink is given as $1.35, and we need to purchase 3 drinks, so the total cost for the drinks = $1.35 * 3 = $4.05
Now, to determine the total cost of purchasing 3 orders of popcorn and 3 drinks when the movie is half over, we add the cost of popcorn and the cost of the drinks together.
Total cost = $5.25 + $4.05 = $9.30
Therefore, the cost for purchasing 3 orders of popcorn and 3 drinks when the movie is half over is $9.30.
