Question

a movie ticket cost $9 a concert ticket cost $45. which equation can be used to find how many times as much the concert ticket cost than the movie ticket?

Answer 1

Division (45/9=5)

Explanation:

Division is just backwards multiplying. So if you divide the bigger one from the smaller one you can find out how many times bigger it is. 45 is 5 times bigger than 9 because 9 times 5 equals 45. The easiest way to find this is by doing 45 divided by 9 equals 5.

Answer 2

45/9 = how many more times

Explanation:

To find out how many times more a concert ticket costs than a movie ticket

concert ticket/movie ticket = how many times

45/9 = how many more times

5 = how many more times
