The regular admission price for an amusement park is $72. For a group of 15 or more, the admission price is reduced by $25 per person. How many people need to be in a group to save $500?

20 people need to be in a group in order for them to save $500.

If there are 15 people or more, people will save $25 on each ticket.

In order to save a total of $500, the number of people who are needed is:

= Amount to be saved / Amount to be saved per ticket

= 500 / 25

= 20 people

In conclusion, if a group of 20 people came, they would save $500.
