Question

Admission to the fair is $15 each ride cost $3 micah spent a total of $36 he spent all of his money on rides and admission

Answer 1

7

Explanation:

Admission cost = $15

Cost per ride = $3

Total amount spent = $36

We can obtain the number of rides thus :

Let number of rides = x

Admission cost + (cost per ride * number of rides) = total amount spent

15 + 3x = 36

3x = 36 - 15

3x = 21

x = 21 / 3

x = 7

Number of rides = 7
