Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p = ticket price of the shoes

p * 3/4 = 36

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3 *3/4 p = 4/3 *36

p = 48

The ticket price is 48 dollars

creativ13 [48]

$\frac{1}{4}$ b - 10 = 7
Take 10 to the other side.

$\frac{1}{4}$ b = 17

Multiply by 4 to isolate b
$\frac{1}{4}$ b × 4 = 17 × 4

4 and 4 cancels out

b = 68
