Applying BODMAS (Order of operations rule)
Where: B is for brackets
O is for 'of' which means multiplication
D is for division
M is for multiplication
A is for addition
S is for subtraction
<u>In this case:</u>
We start with addition then we go to addition and finally we subtract.
(78 × 13) - (8 × 78) + (26 × 78) - 78
= 1014 - 624 + 2028 - 78
= 1014 + 2028 - 624 - 78
= 3042 - 624 - 78
=2340

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the price per bar, we divide the price by the amount of bars. For the first one:
15.37/10 = $1.54 per bar
The second package:
15.35/12 = $1.28 per bar.
The 10-pack costs $1.54 per bar and the 12-pack costs $1.28 per bar. The 12-pack has the better price per bar.
Now, let's look at the price per ounce. We do this in a similar way. We find the total amount of ounces in the package, and divide the price by the number of ounces.
In the first package, we multiply 10*2.1=21. We have 21 ounces in the first package. Now we divide 15.37/21. In the first package, we have 0.73 dollars per ounce.
Now, let's look at the second package. We start by multiplying 1.4*12=16.8. There are 16.8 ounces in the package. Now, we divide 15.35/16.8=0.91. So, in the second package, we have 0.91 dollars per ounce.
The cost per ounce of the 10-pack is $0.73 and the cost per ounce of the 12-pack is $0.91. The first package has the better price per ounce.
The better explanation is the second one, because I prefer the lower price per ounce, I think that the 1st pack is the better buy.
So here are your variables:
# of adult tickets= x
# of student tickets 2x
so x+2x= 246 and solve
3x=246
x=82 adult tickets were sold
