jared has 57 tickets he wants to 150 ticket prize

57-150=93

Jared needs 93 tickets to get the prize

Answer 2

Answer: 93

Explanation:

NOTE: "won" means add, "spent" means subtract

Monday: + 75

Tuesday: Monday + 105 = 75 + 105 = 180

Wednesday: Tuesday + 127 - 250 = 180 + 127 - 250 = 57

Jared has 57 but needs 150

• 150 - 57 = 93
• Jared needs 93 more tickets to get a prize
