A local movie theater has an offer that for every seven movies you pay to go see, they will give you free passes for two other movies. If you paid to see 42 movies last year, how many free passes did you receive?

7 movies = 2 free passes
7x6 = 42
6x2 = 12

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation: 42/7 = 6 and you get 2 free passes so 6 x 2 = 12
