Answer: 10 Pizza Toppings

Step-by-step explanation: First, subtract $8.50 from $16, to get the amount you have left to spend n pizza toppings.

$16 - $8.50 = $7.50 left to spend on pizza toppings.

Next, divide 7.50 by 0.75 to get the amount of topping you can buy.

7.50 divided by 0.75 = 10.

So, if you spent $16, you could get 10 toppings on your pizza.
