You can converte them to a common denominator like 6. 1/2 would be 3/6. 2/3 would be 4/6.
The price of a staff ticket and the price of a student ticket is $8 and $14
Given:
Day 1:
Number of staff tickets sold = 3
Number of students tickets sold = 1
Total revenue day 1 = $38
Day 2:
<em>Number of staff tickets sold</em> = 3
<em>Number of students tickets sold</em> = 2
<em>Total revenue day</em> 2 = $52
let
<em>cost of staff tickets</em> = x
<em>cost of students tickets</em> = y
The equation:
<em>3x + y = 38 (1)</em>
<em>3x + y = 38 (1)3x + 2y = 52 (2)</em>
subtract (1) from (2)
2y - y = 52 - 38
y = 14
substitute y = 14 into (1)
3x + y = 38 (1)
3x + 14 = 38
3x = 38 - 14
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8
Therefore,
cost of staff tickets = x
= $8
cost of students tickets = y
= $14

Answer:
$125
Step-by-step explanation:
if there was a discount of 20%, the sales price is 100 - 20 = 80% of the original price
let a = original price
this equation can be used to represent the question
a x 0.8 = 100 ]]divide both sides by 0.8
a = 100 / 0.8 = 125
