Question

A radio station had 250 tickets to a concert. They gave away 4 times as many tickets to listeners as to employees. How many tickets did they give away to employees?

A. 4
B. 50
C. 5
D. 54

Answer 1

B. 50

Explanation:

By using logic, you can depict that they gave the employees 50.

x = 250 - 4x

If we were to use this equation and replace x with 50, you'd see that if you multiplied 4 by 50 (200) then subtracted that from 250, you would get 50- Proving and checking automatically.
