Well you need to find a common denominator which 30 is the closest one. 5/6 becomes 25/30, 9/10 becomes 27/30. 27/30+ 25/30 = 52/30. To simplify that you divide by 2 to get 26/15. It is no longer divisible to a whole number after that point.
17,19,23 are the prime numbers
You divide each total amount by the number of persons Popcorn: 48/6 = 8 Licorice: 3 X 48 = 144 144/6 = 24 So each person ate 8 ounces of popcorn and 24 inches of licorice laces

Answer:
James bought 11 good tickets and 5 bad tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Cost of each good ticket = $8
Cost of each bad ticket = $5
Total amount spent = $113
Total tickets bought = 16
Let,
x be the number of good tickets bought
y be the number of bad tickets bought
x+y=16 Eqn 1
8x+5y=113 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5
5(x+y=16)
5x+5y=80 Eqn 3
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
(8x+5y)-(5x+5y)=113-80
8x+5y-5x-5y=33
3x=33
Dividing both sides by 3

Putting x=11 in Eqn 1
11+y=16
y=16-11
y=5
Hence,
James bought 11 good tickets and 5 bad tickets.
