Question

The booster club will sell raffle tickets to raise money for new band uniforms. The total cost of the uniforms is $16,272. Each ticket will raise $12. What is the minimum number of tickets that the booster club needs to sell to buy the new band uniforms?

Answer 1

Answer: 1,356 tickets

12x=16,272

divide by 12 on both sides

12x÷12=16,272÷12

x=16,272÷12

x=1,356

I hope this is good enough:
