The cost of a regular price ticket to a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game was $60. During the World Series the price increased by 2/5. What did the fans pay?

1/5 of 60 dollars is 12 dollars, so if you double that then 2/5 should be 24 dollars. Add the $24 increase to the original price (24+60) and you get $84.
Hope this helps!
