With $15 we get 15 chocolates

15 chocolates = 15 wrappers

With 15 wrappers we get 1 chocolate for 3 wrappers

Therefore with 15 wrappers, we get 15/3 = 5 chocolates

With 5 chocolates = 5 wrappers = 5/3 = 1 chocolate + 2 wrappers

From the one chocolate we get 1 wrapper and with the remaining 2 wrappers = 3 wrappers which gives 1 more chocolate

Total Chocolate = 15 + 5 + 1 + 1 = 22 chocolates

Option E

assume spend 15 dollars and get x number of chocolate,
then we get a equation x - x/3 =15
x=45/2= 22.5 ,
ignore the decimal part, so the answer should be 22.
To make a substitution to check the result.
22- 22/3 = 22- 7 = 15 , spend 15 dollar get 22 pieces of chocolate.
