    So 116 is fixed since she only buys groceries once

    the 28 dollares can be spent many times since it is per dinner and there are 1 dinner per night and 7 nights per week so

    cost of groceries+cost of fast foods=total cost=200

    cost of groceries stays at 116

    cost of fast food=cost per dinner times number of dinners

    number of diners=f so

    116+28 times f=200

    116+28f=200

    answer is B
