Question

6 friends all use $2 off coupons to buy themselves movie tickets. They spend a total of $42 Write the equation

Answer 1

(C / n) + 2

Explanation:

Amount spent (C) = 42

Number of friends (n) = 6

Coupon on ticket = $2

Original price of ticket will be :

Cost per coupon ticket = (Total amount spent / number of friends)

(Total amount spent / number of friends) + coupon on ticket

= (C / n) + 2

= (42 /6) + 2

= 7 + 2

= 9
