C For $42 you could get 6 tickets. For $42 you could get 6 tickets.


D 12 tickets would cost you $60

Answer 1

B, C

Explanation:

A is wrong due to the fact that if you divide $28 into 4 (family of 4), the cost is $7 per ticket. If you add 2 tickets together, or multiply $7 by 2, you get $14.

B is right due to the fact that each ticket is $7 if you divide $28 by 4.

C is right due to the fact that if you have 6 tickets worth $7 each, it would mean that the total cost of 6 tickets would be $42. (6*7 = 42)

D is wrong due to the fact that if you multiply 7 (the cost of each ticket) by 12, it gets you 84, not 60.

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

28/4=7 therefore, each ticket is $7.
