represent the days as a variable

days= x

remeber that 80c is the same as $0.80

write an equation that models this situation

[tex]0.80x>25.50[/tex]

solve the equation for x

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{0}.80x=25.50 \\ x>\frac{25.50}{0.80} \\ x>31.875 \end{gathered}[/tex]

according to this, after 31.875 days he will have enoght for the hat
