Answer:

$135.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a baseball ticket at Yankee Stadium = $60.00

The price is increased by $2\frac{1}{4}$ over the last three years.

Let the price of the ticket of today be x

x = $2\frac{1}{4}$ × 60.00

x = $\frac{9}{4}$ × 60.00

x = $\frac{540}{4}$

x = $135.00

The new price of the ticket is $135.00
