Set up a proportion, 20 over 25% and x over 60% and the answer is 48
25 tickets
I put the information into this equation 5+0.65x=10+0.45x
I solved the equation by first subtracting the 0.45x from both sides to get the variable on one side. I was left with 5+0.20x=10. Then I subtracted the 5 from both sides and got 0.20x=5. Finally I divided both sides by 0.20 to get the X by itself and got X=25
