To find out how many tickets Joseph can buy, we need to calculate how much money he has left after buying the hat.
Joseph has $34.25, and the hat costs $12.50.
$34.25 - $12.50 = $21.75
Now we can divide the remaining amount by the cost of one ticket to find out how many tickets Joseph can buy.
$21.75 / $7.25 = 3 tickets
So Joseph can buy 3 tickets.
