Question

Which choice models this situation? Fahad needs to sell 25 tickets to a fundraiser by Friday. So far, he has sold 9 tickets. How many tickets does he still need to sell?

Answer 1

16 tickets

Explanation:

Number of tickets he has to sell = 25

Number of tickets he has sold = 9

How many tickets does he still need to sell?

Number of tickets he still needs to sell = Number of tickets he has to sell - Number of tickets he has sold

= 25 - 9

= 16 tickets

Number of tickets he still needs to sell = 16 tickets

Therefore, Fahad still needs to sell 16 more tickets
