Answer:
The answer is 2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you turn 3 3/4 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator = 4x3=12 +3=15/4.
Then you turn 1 1/2 into an improper fraction .To do that you multiply the denominator x the whole number + the numerator =2x1+1=3/2
15/4 divided by 3/2 but get your answer you have to reverse 3/2 into 2/3 and you multiply instead of dividing .
15/4 x 2/3 =15 x2 = 30 , 4x3=12 so your answer will be 30/12 but it can be simplified because they are both multiple of 6 . So , 30 divided by 6 = 5 and 12 divided by 6 = 2 so then you answer is 5/2 but it is an improper fraction so you divide 5 by 2 and you get 2 and a remainder of 1/2=2 1/2
I think the correct answer is D), I’m sorry if it’s wrong
The number of people who bought £4 tickets are 139.
<h3>How to illustrate the equation?</h3>
Let £4 tickets be x
Let £5 tickets be y.
Therefore based on the information given, this will be:
x + y = 223 ..... i
4x + 5y = 936 ..... ii
From equation i
x = 213 - y
Put this into equation ii
4x + 5y = 936
4(213 - y) + 5y = 936
852 - 4y + 5y = 936
Collect like terms
y = 84
This implies that the number of £5 tickets is 84.
Recall that x + y = 223
x + 84 = 223
x = 223 - 84
x = 139
The number of £4 tickets is 139
