The friend will get 12 issues for $15.
A ratio indicates the number of times one number contains another.
Given that, the friend pays $1.50 per issue:
$1.5 = 1 issues
$1 = 1/1.5 issues
$15 = (1/1.5) × 15 issues
$15 = 10
Since the friend gets the first two issues free, he will get 10 + 2 =12 issues.
Hence, the friend will get 12 issues for $15.
