Question

The admission fee to an amusement park is $18. It costs an additional c dollars to rent a locker to hold your belongings. The total cost for 2 people to enter the amusement park and each rent a locker is $46. How much does it cost for one person to rent a locker?

Answer 1

$5 for one person to rent a locker

Explanation:

Assuming the $18 is for one person, then two people it would be $36, since $18 + $18 = $36 and it's stated there's two people. If you subtract $36 from $46 you get $10, and since it's for two people you split it in half (so basically divide by 2) you get $5 for a locker.

Hope this helps!
