An online movie streaming plan chargers and annual fee of $45 plus $2.50 per movie watched. another plan has no annual fee but charges $3.75 per movie watched. for how many movies is the cost of the plans the same?

I’m not sure if this is the answer you are looking for because the question is confusing but I have done the maths.

For plan 1 you are able to watch 3 movies and pay the annual fee for a total of $52.50 . (Meaning you can only watch 3 movies a year) (annual means per year, so that means that every month it is $3.75 per month ($45 divided by 12) with additional costs of $2.50 per movie)

For plan 2 you are able to watch 14 movies a year with a total of $52.50.
