Final answer:

To find out how many $1.50 stickers can be bought with $25, divide 25 by 1.50, resulting in 16.666..., which means 16 stickers can be bought since you cannot purchase a fraction of a sticker.

Step-by-step explanation:

If stickers cost $1.50 each and you have $25, to find out how many stickers you can buy, you need to divide the amount of money you have by the cost of one sticker. Let's do the math:

Total money available: $25

Cost of one sticker: $1.50

To calculate the number of stickers you can buy, you divide the total money available by the cost per sticker:

  • $25 ÷ $1.50 = 16.bar(6)

So, you can buy 16 stickers with $25, since you can't buy a fraction of a sticker. If stickers are sold individually, you would use the whole number of stickers that you can afford and ignore the decimal or fraction part.
