Question

Tivo families planned to go to the zoo. The entry ticket for one adult was $7.31 and

the entry ticket for one child was $5.66. There were two adults in the group. The
families intend to spend no more than $46.00. What is the greatest number of child
tickets that can be purchased?

Answer 1

5 children

Explanation:

Solve

$7.31 x2 = $14.62

$46 - 14.62 =$32

5.66 divided by 5 = 28.3

5.66 divided by 6 = 33

$33 is bigger than $31

Therefore, the greatest number of children tickets can be purchased is only 5.
