Question

It costs $4 to enter the fair. Each ride costs $2.50. You have $21.50. How many rides can you go on? Write an equation, then solve.

Answer 1

Answer:7 rides

Explanation:

First subtract 21.50-4=17.50

Then divide 17.50 ÷2.50=7

Answer 2

21.50 = 4+2.50x
You can go on 7 rides
21.50-4.00= 17.50
17.50/2.50= 7
