Francesca is afraid she won’t have enough money to treat herself and two friends to a movie and snacks. Movie tickets cost $7.50 each, medium popcorns cost $2.95 each, and medium soft drinks cost $2.70 each. Round each amount up to the nearest whole dollar to find a reasonable overestimate of the total cost of the evening’s entertainment.

3 people total
$7.50 to $8
$2.95 to $3
$2.70 to $3
8*3=24
3*3=9
3*3=9
24+9+9=42
$42

Alright, so let's get started.
First, what you'll focus on doing is rounding each item to the nearest whole dollar. Remember, you have yourself and 3 friends. So:
Movie tickets- $8 x 3 = $24
Medium Popcorns- $3 x 3 = $9
Medium Soft Drinks- $3 x 3 = $9
So, altogether: $42
If you want to include tax as well, go for it. So maybe $45?
