You surprised your friends with a trip to a haunted house this weekend. The admission tickets were $8 per friend. You had to pay an additional $5 for parking and you spend $20 on food. You also got your friends a card that was $2 per friend. At the end of the night, you spent $105. How many of your friends did you bring to the haunted house?

Answer: 8

Explanation:

Ok, start going backwards with the addition and substration which makes it:

105 – 25 = 80

Since you had to pay 8 and 2 for each friend so that makes the cost for a friend 10 so:

80 divided by 10 = 8

8 Friends is the answer.
