Tickets to a musical cost $15 for adults and $6 for students. Mr. James and Mrs. Reagan are taking their classes to the musical.
If 8 adults, including the teachers, went along as chaperones and the total cost for the combined classes to attend the musical was $480, how many students attended the musical?
That is not the answer, the answer is 60 students... what I did was 8x15 to get 120, then I subtracted 480-120 to get 360. 360 is the amount of money the kids cost. Finally I divided 360 by 6 to get 60 because each student was 6$
