Question

Which is a better deal? Three movie tickets for 18 dollars or 8 movie tickets for 42 dollars? How do you know? How much money do you save per ticket with the better deal?

Answer 1

$42 for 8 tickets

Explanation:

To tell which is the better deal you need to find out how much each ticket costs per scenario

$18 for 3 tickets you will need to do 18/3 which will give you $6 a ticket

$42 for 8 tickets you will need to do 42/8 which will give you $5.25 a ticket

$42 option is cheaper per ticket so it is therefore the better option.
