Question

Sarah is spending the day at a state fair. While at the fair, she can play games or ride rides. When Sarah arrives at the fair, she purchases 15 tickets and wants to use all of the tickets that she purchases. Playing a game at the fair requires three tickets, and riding a ride at the fair requires six tickets. To make her trip to the fair worthwhile, Sarah decides she must participate in seven activities at the fair.

Answer 1

Sarah requires the purchase of additional 12 tickets to ensure her participation in the seven activities at the fair.

How are the additional (missing) tickets determined?

The additional tickets required by Sarah can be determined as follows:

Number of tickets purchased initially = 15

Number of tickets for playing a game = 3

Number of tickets for riding a ride = 6

Sarah can play five (5) games with 15 tickets (15/3).

Sarah can then purchase 12 additional tickets (6 x 2).

The later action enables Sarah to participate in 5 games and 2 rides, making it a total of 7 activities.

Thus, by purchasing additional 12 tickets, Sarah can participate in 5 games and 2 rides, making it a total of 7 activities.
