Question

Samantha brings $34 to the county fair. First, she pays the admission fee of $8.50. Next she buys a corn dog for
$4.50. Samantha plans to spend the rest of her money on ride tickets. Each ride ticket costs $1.75.
Enter the maximum number of ride tickets Samantha can buy with her remaining money.

Answer 1

Answer:

12 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get the total and subtract it from the expenses.

34 - 8.50 - 4.50 = 21

Then divide the answer by how much each ride costs to find the answer

21 ➗1.75 = 12

So Sam can ride 12 rides.
