Final answer:

To calculate how much is still owed for Molly's party, we add up the costs of food & drink, game tokens, and other items, then subtract the deposit amount of 10% of the total cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how much is still owed for Molly's party, we need to find the total cost of the party and subtract the deposit amount. The total cost of the party is the sum of the prices of food & drink, game tokens, and other items, which is $300 + $150 + $90 = $540.

The deposit is 10% of the total cost, so we can calculate it by multiplying the total cost by 0.10. In this case, the deposit amount is $540 x 0.10 = $54.

Finally, to find out how much is still owed, we subtract the deposit amount from the total cost: $540 - $54 = $486.
