Question

A family of 4 spent $104 for tickets to a concert on Friday and they spent $140 for tickets to a dinner theater on Saturday. All of the tickets were the same price each day. What was the cost of each ticket on Friday and Saturday?

Answer 1

Answer:

• Friday's tickets: $26 each
• Saturday's tickets: $35 each

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume that 4 tickets were bought each day, so the price of 1 ticket is 1/4 of the total price:

  (1/4)($104) = $26

  (1/4)($140) = $35

The cost of each ticket on Friday was $26; on Saturday, the cost was $35.
