Question

What's the answer to this question: There were 80 adults and 20 children at a school play. The school collected $8 for each adult's ticket and $20 for each child's ticket. The school donated $125 of the money from tickets to a local theater program and used the leftover money to buy supplies for the next play. How much money does the school have to buy supplies for the next play?

Answer 1

Your answer  is 1040-125= 915 and 915 is your answer 

Answer 2

All you have to do is multiply the 80 adults by the cost of an adult tickets wich is 80 x 8=640 and then calculate the cost of children's tickets which is 20 x 20=400 then add 400 to 640 400+640 = 1040 then subtract the amount the school donated from that which is 1040-125= 915 and 915 is your answer 

hope this helps! :)
