<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>
<span>Solving this for N gives </span> <span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>
<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>
Each kid ticket will cost 12.25 dollars because 18.50 times 12 equals 222 dollars. You subtract 222 from 344.50 to get the total amount for 10 kids which is 122.50 dollars. 122.50 divides by 10 is 12.50.
