Question

It costs $12 for admission to the Fair, plus $0.50 for each ticket to play games. If you have a total of $30 to spend, what is the greatest amount of tickets you can buy?

Answer 1

36 tickets

Explanation:

The expression is given as:

$12 + $0.50× x = $30

12 + 0.50x = 30

0.50x = 30 - 12

0.50x = 18

x = 18/0.50

x = 36 tickets

Therefore, the greatest amount of tickets you can buy is 36 tickets
