Answer 1

21.75÷5 = Elise payed 4.35 for each student ticket

Answer 2

Cost of each student ticket is, $4.35

Explanation:

Given the statement: Elise pays $21.75 for 5 student tickets to the fair.

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 6 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

`unit rate = (Total ticket Cost)/(No of students)`

Given total cost paid by Elise = $21.75

Number of students = 5

then;

Unite rate per student =
`(21.75)/(5) = \$4.35`

Therefore, the cost of each student ticket is, $4.35
