Question

A park charges $19 for one round of miniature golf and a reduced fee for each additional round played. If Tom paid $34 for 6 rounds of miniature golf what is the reduced fee for each additional round played?

Answer 1

$3

Explanation:

Given that:

Park charge for one round = $19

Reduced fee for every additional round

Number of rounds played by Tom = 6

Amount paid = $34

Amount left after 1 round :

Amount paid - first round charge

$34 - $19 = $15

Number of rounds left = (6 - 1) = 5

Charge per additional round :

$15 / 5 = $3
