Answer:

30 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

One ticket can be represented as variable t.

Using t, we can set up an equation (proportion) using the given information:


6t = \$ 40

Then, we can multiply both sides of the equation (proportion) by something such that the number of dollars on the right side is $200.


6t \ = \ \$ 40 \\* 5 \ \ \ * 5


30t = \$ 200

So, we can get 30 tickets for $200.
