You have $25 to spend on snacks for movie night with 4 of your friend’s. If individual boxes of raisins are $1.50, and all 5 of you want to buy your own box. Find the amount of money left per person for popcorn and a drink
You and your 4 friends want to buy individual boxes of raisins, so that's a total of 5 boxes of raisins to be purchased. Each box of raisins costs $1.50, so the total cost for the raisins is 5 * $1.50 = $<<5*1.50=7.50>>7.50.
You have $25 to spend on snacks, and you spent $7.50 on raisins, so the remaining amount is $25 - $7.50 = $<<25-7.50=17.50>>17.50.
Since there are 5 of you in total, including yourself, you have $17.50 / 5 = $<<17.50/5=3.50>>3.50 left per person for popcorn and a drink.
