Question: Marcus is having a water balloon party. He has 100 balloons. Each balloon holds 3 ounces of water. He can buy 50 ounces of water for $2.5 a bottle. If he walks into the store with 2 $10 bills, how much change will he have after he buys all the water he needs?
Stream-of-consciousness: He will need 300 ounces of water because 100 x 3 = 300. He will need 6 bottles because 300 / 50 = 6. This will cost $15 because 6 x 2.5 = 15. He has $20 because 2 x 10 = 20. He will get $5 in change because 20 - 15 = 5.
