Question

Stephon went to the Griffin Fair with $25.50. He bought a hot dog and a drink for $4.25, and he wanted to spend the rest of his money on ride tickets which cost $1.25 each. What is the maximum number of ride tickets that he can buy?

Answer 1

17

Explanation:

$25.50-$4.25=$21.5 [ 21.5 is the mony he has left after he bought the food]

$21.25÷$1.25=17 [we will divide the rest of his mony with the cost of 1 ticket so we can get how many tickets he can buy]
