• Choice A

    First calculate the total amount spent:

    $3.45+$6.00+2($3.25)=$3.45+$6.00+$6.50=$15.95\$3.45 + \$6.00 + 2(\$3.25) = \$3.45 + \$6.00 + \$6.50 = \$15.95

    The remaining money is:

    $25.00$15.95=$9.05\$25.00 - \$15.95 = \$9.05

    Each stake costs \1.20$. The number of stakes that can be purchased:

    9.051.20=7.54=7\left\lfloor \frac{9.05}{1.20} \right\rfloor = \lfloor 7.54 \rfloor = 7

    Since you cannot buy a fraction of a stake, the maximum is 77 stakes.
