To calculate the cost of buying enough juice boxes, we need to figure out how many packages of juice boxes Joey needs to buy and then multiply that by the cost per package.

First, let's determine how many packages of juice boxes Joey needs to buy. Since each package contains 6 juice boxes, we divide the total number of juice boxes needed (27) by the number of juice boxes per package (6):

27 juice boxes ÷ 6 juice boxes per package = 4.5 packages

Since we cannot purchase a fraction of a package, Joey will need to round up to the nearest whole number of packages. So Joey needs to buy 5 packages of juice boxes.

Next, let's calculate the cost of each package of juice boxes. Each package costs $2.50.

Now, multiply the cost per package ($2.50) by the number of packages needed (5):

$2.50 × 5 packages = $12.50

Therefore, it will cost Joey $12.50 to buy enough juice boxes for the party.
