    The answer to your question is she bought 79 large cups and 76 small cups.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Data

    small cups = s = $1.25

    large cups = l = $2.15

    total number of cups = 155

    total money = $265

    Process

    1. - Write 2 equations to solve the problem

    s + l = 155

    1.25s + 2.15l = 265

    2. - Solve by substitution

    s = 155 - l

    1.25 (155 - l) + 2.15l = 265

    193.75 - 1.25l + 2.15l = 265

    -1.25l + 2.15l = 265 - 193.75

    0.9l = 71.25

    l = 71.25/0.9

    l = 79

    s = 155 - 79

    s = 76
