Question

Trilobites to concert tickets from her friend she pays $90 for the two tickets she looks at the tickets and see that each ticket has a space value of 52. 50. How much of a markdown did her friend give Shelia. Explain how you know.

Answer 1

Her friend gave Sheila a markdown of $15.

Explanation:

Given;

Amount paid for 2 tickets = $90

Actual amount for each ticket = $52.50

we need to find the markdown value did her friend gave to Shelia.

Solution:

each ticket = $52.50

2 tickets = Cost of 2 tickets.

By using unitary method we get;

Cost of 2 tickets =
`52.50* 2 =\$105.00`

Now To find the markdown we will subtract the Amount paid for 2 tickets from the actual Amount of 2 tickets.

framing in equation form we get;

Markdown
`105-90 =\$15`

Hence her friend gave sheila a markdown of $15.
