$\bf \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{100}{1}}{\frac{47}{5}}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{100}{1}\cdot \cfrac{5}{47}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{500}{47}\implies 75\cdot 47=500\cdot x

\cfrac{3525}{500}=x\implies \cfrac{141}{20}=x\implies 7.05=x$

<em>Expected Payoff ⇒ $ 1.50 ; Type in 1.50</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering that 1 out of the 100 tickets will have a probability of winning a 150 dollar prize, take a proportionality into account;

$100 - Number of Tickets,\\1 - Number of Tickets You Can Enter,\\\\1 / 100 - Probability of Winning,\\$ 150 - Money Won,\\\\Proportionality - 1 / 100 = x / 150, where x - " Expected Payoff "\\\\1 / 100 = x / 150,\\100 * x = 150,\\\\Conclusion ; x = 1.5 dollars$

<em>Thus, Solution ; Expected Payoff ⇒ $ 1.50</em>
