The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
Percentage score will be 83.33 %
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given Antonette gets 70 % on 10 problem test
Let consider here here total problem = total marks
So marks get 10 10 problem test = 10×0.7 = 7
Marks get in 20 problem test = 20×0.8 = 16
And marks get in 30 problem test = 30×0.9 = 27
Now total marks get get by Antonette = 7 +16 + 27 = 50
And total marks = 60
So percentage score of Antonette 
%
Answer:
7 1/2+ 7 1/2=146 of 146 Kerry and Eric ran the same amount each
