                                                                          65.00

Step-by-step explanation:

So he only has 100 dollars to spend          

so you take the 25 cents and put it into a group of four  with 16 balloons each

.... .... .... ....     .... .... .... ....   .... .... .... ....    ..

  16                    16                16             2

the dots represent Each balloon which is worth 25 cents

so in total You will Spend     $12.50 on the balloons      

                                              $22.50 on hats

then you add numbers together and subtract it with 100.00

There for the answer is C he can buy more than 20 which means he can actually buy $65 of cupcakes
