Lizzy: Timothy has $50 to spend at a souvenir shop. He sees some t-shirts that cost $8 each, key chains that sell 3 pieces for $2, and bags that cost $10 each. Timothy buys 2 t-shirts and 2 bags. How many pieces of key chains can he buy with the amount of money he has left?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:

The two t - shirts amount to $8 x 2 = $16. The two bags amount to $10 x 2 = $20. So Timothy spent $16 + $20 = $36 for the shirts and bags. He still has $50 - $36 = $14 left to spend for the key chains. With the money, he can buy $14 / $2 = 7 sets of key chains. Therefore, he can buy 7 x 3 = 21 pieces of key chains. Final answer: 21.
