Question

Beyonce and Guns N Roses had the two top-grossing North American concert tours for 2016, together generating $300 million in tickets sales. If Guns N Roses took in $38 million less than Beyonce, how much did each tour generate?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B + G = 300 (million)

G = B - 38 (million)

B + B - 38 = 300

2B - 38 = 300

2B = 300 + 38

2B = 338

B = 338/2

B = 169 million <=== Beyonce

G = B - 38

G = 169 - 38

G = 131 million <==== Guns N Roses
