You and three friends each get an admission ticket to the town Carnival you have a coupon for $20 off the whole saved group money if the total bill is $100 how much did each admission ticket cost
Let's call the cost of each admission ticket "x". If there are 4 people in total, then there would be 4 admission tickets, so the total cost of the tickets without the coupon would be 4x.
If the coupon saves $20 off the total bill of $100, then the total bill after the coupon is applied is $100 - $20 = $80.
Since the total bill is equal to the cost of the admission tickets, we can set up the equation 4x = $80.
Solving for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 4:
4x/4 = $80/4
x = $20
Therefore, each admission ticket cost $20.
To find out how much each admission ticket cost, we need to subtract the amount saved by the coupon from the total bill and then divide it by the number of tickets. Let's break it down step by step:
1. Start with the total bill, which is $100.
2. Apply the coupon discount of $20 to the total bill. Subtract $20 from $100: $100 - $20 = $80.
3. Divide the remaining amount by the number of admission tickets. Since you and your three friends each have one ticket, we divide $80 by 4: $80 ÷ 4 = $20.
Therefore, each admission ticket costs $20.
To find out how much each admission ticket cost, we need to subtract the coupon savings from the total bill and divide the remaining amount by the number of tickets.
Let's calculate:
Total bill = $100
Coupon savings = $20
Remaining amount after applying the coupon = $100 - $20 = $80
Since you and your three friends have a total of four admission tickets, we can divide the remaining amount by 4 to find the cost per ticket:
Cost per ticket = Remaining amount / Number of tickets
Cost per ticket = $80 / 4 = $20
Therefore, each admission ticket cost $20.
are you sure
I apologize for the confusion. Let's reevaluate the problem.
You and three friends each have an admission ticket to the town Carnival. There is a coupon available that gives a $20 discount for the entire group if the total bill is $100.
Let's represent the cost of each admission ticket as "x". The total cost of the admission tickets without the coupon is 4x because there are four people in total.
With the coupon discount, the total bill becomes $100 - $20 = $80.
Now we can solve for x:
4x = $80
Divide both sides of the equation by 4:
x = $80 / 4
x = $20
Therefore, each admission ticket costs $20.
I apologize for the previous confusion. Each admission ticket indeed costs $20.
