A University of Florida student earns $15 per day delivering advertising brochures door-to-door, plus 75¢ for each person he interviews. How many people did he interview on a day when he earned $57?

$15 * 3 days = $45

$57 - $45 = $12

$12 / $0.75 = 16

He interviews 16 people to earn a total of $57.
