 An art teacher is hosting a summer art camp.  He has a total of $180 to purchase snacks, drinks, and art supplies.  He buys 45 bags of chips at $0.55 each and 45 juice boxes at $0.80 each.  How much money does he have left to spend on art supplies? 

To find out how much money the art teacher has left to spend on art supplies, we need to calculate the total cost of the chips and juice boxes, and then subtract that from the total budget.

1. **Cost of chips**:  
   He buys 45 bags of chips at $0.55 each:  
   \[
   45 \times 0.55 = 24.75
   \]

2. **Cost of juice boxes**:  
   He buys 45 juice boxes at $0.80 each:  
   \[
   45 \times 0.80 = 36.00
   \]

3. **Total cost of snacks and drinks**:  
   \[
   24.75 + 36.00 = 60.75
   \]

4. **Money left for art supplies**:  
   The total budget is $180, so the money left is:  
   \[
   180 - 60.75 = 119.25
   \]

Thus, the art teacher has **$119.25** left to spend on art supplies.
