Question

A radio station gave away 192 tickets to a concert. They gave away 5 times as many tickets to listeners as they gave to employees. How many tickets did they give away to employees?

Answer 1

Tickets to workers= 32

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total tickets= 192

They gave away 5 times as many tickets to listeners as they gave to employees.

We will use the rule of 3:

6/6=192

5/6= ? = 192*(5/6) = 160

They gave 160 tickets to listeners.

Tickets to workers= 192 - 160= 32

Prove:

32*5= 160
