Answer: m = $52
Explanation:
Tickets (t) = $8
Popcorn & Soda (s)= $5
Friends = 4
Since all friends bought the same thing the equation will be set as
4(t +s) = m OR 4t +4s = m
Using substitution, you plug each variable
t = 8 and s = 5
4((8) + (5)) = m
4(8+5) = m => 4(13) =m => 52=m
OR
4(8) + 4(5) = m => 32 + 20 = m =>
52 =m
Wow a lot of plants but make a Mendelson Square [looks like a tic- tac -toe board (# this super large) with p and w at the top and p and w down the side. I would some how get those numbers checked out cuz generally there are only 4 squares:)
First you take 15/10 and see that you can take 5 out of the top and bottom, so it would become 3/2. Now you have 2 3/2. 2 goes into 3 once with 1 remainder so 3/2= 1 1/2
So then you take the original 2 and add it to 1 1/2. The answer is now 3 1/2
