Final answer:
Henry bought 8 tickets to the park as the cost per ticket is $25.95 and the total cost is $193.65, which results in exactly 7.46 tickets when divided, and we must round to the nearest whole number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry's purchases tickets to a park, and the total cost of all tickets is given as $193.65. If one ticket costs $25.95, we need to write an equation to find out how many tickets Henry bought. Let's denote the number of tickets as T. So, the equation to express the total cost will be:
Cost per ticket × Number of tickets = Total cost
25.95 × T = 193.65
Now, let's solve for T:
T = 193.65 / 25.95
T = 7.46
Since Henry can't purchase a fraction of a ticket, we round this number to the nearest whole number. Thus, Henry bought 8 tickets. Therefore, the correct answer is c) 8 tickets.
