Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

add 24 to 54 and you get 78. divide that by 9 and you get 13.

24 is the total price off

54 is the total he pays

add 54 and 24 to get 78, the original total without any off

9 is the amount each cup costed with the 4 dollars off

divide 78 by 9

13 would be the answer

13- 9 is also 4 dollars
