Answer 1

Answer:

She gave her brother 6 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on fractional numbers.

given that she has 60 tickets

1.She used 3/4 of her tickets to play game

=(3/4)*60

=180/4

=45

She is left with (60-45)= 15 tickets

2. She used 1/5 of her remaining tickets for rides

    =(1/5)*15

   =15/5

   =3

She is left with (15-3)= 12 tickets

3. She gave half of her tickets to her brother.

  = (1/2)*12

  =12/2

 = 6

She gave her brother 6 tickets
