Question

A radio station had 100 tickets to a concert. They gave away 3thimes as many tickets to listeners as to employees. How many tickets did they give away to employees?

Answer 1

They gave away 75 tickets to the listeners and 25 to the employees.

Explanation:

If you think about it the function for this would be f(x)=3x+x=100.

3x is the listeners while x is the employees. A simplified version of solving this is doing 100/4 and then 25 times 1 is 25, which is the number of tickets to emplyees.
