Question

Three people bought tickets to a movie. One person payed with a $50 bill and received $23 back. If they group used a coupon for 25% off, then what is the original price for one ticket? (Please show work, if possible)

Answer 1

Answer:

Okay so I don't know if this is right but I think the cost of one ticket is $13.16 rounded it would be 13.17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first $50 - $23 = 27

Then 25% or 0.25 * $50 = $12.50

Next $12.50 + $27 = $39.50

Then $39.50 ÷ 3 = $13.16 (The 6 keeps repeating)

If thats not the answer then 1 im so sorry and 2 then it might be 11.25?

Im sorry if this is confusing
