The tickets brought by the Spencer's family

4 adult tickets=
4X $8.75 = $35

2 children tickets =
2X $6.50 = $13

So that would add to $35+$13 = $48


Now let's calculate the cost for Andrew family

2 adult ticket =
2X$8.75 = $17.5

3 children's ticket =
3X $6.50 = $ 19.5

1 senior ticket =
1X $6.50 = $ 6.50

So this will add to


17.5+19.5+6.5

=$43.5

(c)No. The Spencer family has spent more than the Andrew family

P.S. The part a mentioned here is not actually , yet the total cost of tickets are calculated. Hope this helps
