He has $90 in total to spend
He spent (31/45) of this money on ticket
so money spent on ticket =(31/45) *90 =2790/45 =62
Now money left with him is 90-62 =28 $
Now it says that he spent (3/7) of this remaining money at concession stand
so money spent on concession stand =(3/7)*28 =84/7 =12
Now money left with him = 28-12 =16
So money left with him is $16 but hat costs for $18
So Mr. O'Connor didnt have enough moeny to buy the hat
