No she's not correct,,,
If the teas are $50 to start with 20% up from $50 is $62.50
if she counts down 20% down from that it wouldn't be $50 but be $40.
So she would not break even.
The Answer is 2/3
Steps: 1/4(1-(2/3^2+1/3)
Steve = S , Tom = T
1) S+T = 7777
2) S= 1414 + 2T
put 2) in 1)
1414+2T + T = 7777
1414 +3T = 7777
3T = 6363
so T = 2121
then Steve sold 1414+2(2121) = 1414+4242=5656 tickets
while Tom sold 2121 tickets
