Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by figuring out how much sugar Karen needs in total.
She needs (1+1/3) cups for her original recipe. To triple that, we need (1+1/3) 3 times. We can calculate this by multiplying it by 3.
(1+1/3) * 3 = 3 + 1 = 4
Karen needs 4 cups in total. She has 1/2 cup. The difference is how much more she needs. Therefore, she needs 4 - 1/2 = 3 1/2 cups
Paul spend 22.4 on student discount card.
A + s = 456........a = 456 - s
3.5a + s = 1131
3.5(456 - s) + s = 1131
1596 - 3.5s + s = 1131
-3.5s + s = 1131 - 1596
-2.5s = - 465
s = -465/-2.5
s = 186 <====== student tickets sold
a + s = 456
a + 186 = 456
a = 456 - 186
a = 270 <==== adult tickets sold
