Luke has $9.00 to spend at the concession stand. He buys a hot dog for $1.50, and he wants to purchase some sour straws for $0.75 each. How many sour straws can Luke purchase with the money that he has?

He can buy 10 sour straws which then gives you the perfect amount of 1.50 to buy 1 hotdog

Answer:

he could buy 10 sour straws because if you subtract 9 by 1.50 it will give you 7.5. Then you divide 7.5 by 0.75 which is 10.
