Answer:

$6.50

I don't know if it is right, but here you go

Explanation:

First thing we do is find how much 25 text messages cost

divide 200 by 4

=50 text messages for one dollar

divide by 2

=25 text messages for 0.50 cents

divide 325 by 25

=13

multiply by 0.50

=6.5

250 300

Cross multiply (means and extremes):

$5*300 = 250*x

1500 = 250x
