Question

Mark decides to buy Sixer's season tickets. The package costs $150, but every time he goes to a game, he can buy a hotdog for $3. If he has $375 saved up for Sixers games and food, how many hotdogs can he buy?

A) 25 hotdogs
B) 75 hotdogs
C) 100 hotdogs
D) 125 hotdogs

Answer 1

After purchasing the season tickets for $150, Mark has $225 left of his $375 budget. Since each hotdog costs $3, he can buy 75 hotdogs with his remaining budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark can buy a certain number of hotdogs at Sixers games once he has purchased season tickets. The season tickets cost $150, and each hotdog costs $3. Mark has a total of $375 for both tickets and food. To determine how many hotdogs he can buy, we must first subtract the cost of the season tickets from his total budget:
$375 (total budget) - $150 (season tickets) = $225 remaining for hotdogs
Next, we divide the remaining budget by the cost of one hotdog to find the quantity he can afford:
$225 / $3 per hotdog = 75 hotdogs
Therefore, Mark can purchase 75 hotdogs after buying his season tickets.
