Question

If you pay $7 for 3 tickets how much would 24 tickets cost?

Answer 1

24 tickets would cost $56

Explanation:

You would Convert it to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. 7/3*24=$56

3 tickets cost=$7

1 ticket cost= 7/3=$7/3

Answer 2

24 tickets would cost about $55.92

Explanation:

To solve this equation I decided to figure out how much one ticket cost. I divided 7 by 3 and got 2.333333 I rounded that to one ticket costing $2.33. I then multiplied 2.33 by 24. 24 x 2.33= 55.92.

The reason I multiplied 24 by 2.33 is because the cost of one ticket is $2.33 so if I wanted to buy 24 tickets, I would have to multiply in order to find out the total cost.

I hope that this answer helped :D
