    Step-by-step explanation:

    Start with $25.

    Now subtract the cost of the necklace, $9.50.

    $25 - $9.50 = $15.50

    Dani has $15.50 left after buying the necklace.

    Each pair of earrings costs $3.75.

    To find the number of $3.75 pairs of earrings she can buy with $15.50, we divide $15.50 by $3.75.

    $15.50/$3.75 = 4.13333 ...

    Since you cannot buy a fraction of a pair of earrings, we must round 4.1333 ... down to 4.

    Answer: 4 pairs of earrings.
