Answer:

Explanation:

It costs $135.35 for 15 child tickets to the museum. This means that the cost of one child ticket would be

135.35/15 = $9.02

Therefore, the cost for 40 children to attend would be

9.02 × 40 = $361

Adult tickets cost $12.95 each. This means that the cost of 5 adult tickets would be

12.95 × 5 = $64.75

Therefore the total cost for 40 children and 5 adults to attend would be

361 + 64.75 = $425.75
