0. At a rugby match, the ratio of children to adults is 2 : 3

There are 80 children in the crowd.
Each adult ticket costs £8
Each child ticket costs a quarter of the adult ticket.
Work out the total money made from ticket sales.

C (2):(3) A
C (80): ? A
80/2=40
3x40= 120
120 adults

now for tickets..
8x120=£960
1/4 of 8 is 2
2x80=£160
£960+£160=£1,120 total!
