Answer 1

Answer:

The better deal is the tickets for $12.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12.50=2.5

8/20.16=2.52

Answer 2

First we have to see in both cases what is the cost of one ticket
in the fist case 12.5/5=2.5
in the second case 20.16/8=2.52
therefore 5 tickets for 12.5 is the better deal
