Answer 1

The Solution:

Given the table below:

We are required to determine the value of the letters A, B, C, and D.

$\begin{gathered} 2\text{ tickets = \ 8} \\ \text{ This means} \\ 1\text{ ticket =}\frac{8}{2}=\text{ \ 4} \end{gathered}$

To find A (cost of 3 tickets)

$A=3\times4=\text{ \ 12}$

To find B (cost of 7 tickets)

$B=7\times4=\text{ \ 28}$

To find C (number of tickets that cost $20)

$C=\frac{20}{4}=5\text{ tickets}$

To find D (number of tickets that cost $40)

$D=\frac{40}{4}=10\text{ tickets}$

Therefore, the correct answers are:

A=12, B=28, C=5 and D=10
