Remember that the endpoints of a budget constraint are the number of units of that good that could be purchased if all income were spent that way. We know that Billy has $150 and that soda costs $1.25 each so we just need to compute how many sodas he could buy with $150. The answer is $150 ÷ $1.25 = 120 or budget (c).
