Joseph wants to buy tickets for the baseball game and a team hat to wear to the game. He has $34.25 at the hat cost 1250 and tickets cost $7.25 each. How many tickets can he buy? Is it two tickets one ticket six tickets or three tickets?
To determine how many tickets Joseph can buy, we need to subtract the cost of the hat from his total amount of money and then divide the remaining amount by the cost of each ticket.
$34.25 - $12.50 (cost of the hat) = $21.75
$21.75 ÷ $7.25 (cost of each ticket) = 3 tickets
Therefore, Joseph can buy three tickets.
