What is Unitary Method?

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given:

Total amount = $285.75

Parking = $13.75

Price of ticket per person = $34.

So, money left after paying for parking

=285.75 - 13.75

= 272

Now, number of people in amusement park

= 272/34

=8

Hence, 8 people can go to the amusement park.
