Answer-

The inequality that models this situation is,


\boxed{\boxed{B.\ 6x+3\leq 27}}

Solution-

The total money Charlie has = $27

He wants to order 6 sandwiches and a kid's meal of $3

Let us assume the price of each sandwiches is x.

So, the amount he will be spending for sandwiches is $6x

The total amount he will be spending is $(6x+3)

As he has only $27, so he can spend any amount less than or equal to 27

So the inequality becomes,


\Rightarrow 6x+3\leq 27

Therefore, the inequality that models this situation is
6x+3\leq 27
