Question

Barbara bought 5 movie tickets for $30. If she bought 9 tickets how much would it cost?

Answer 1

Answer:

$ 54

Step-by-step explanation:

Barbara bought :

5 tickets ⇒ $ 30

And now let the costs of 9 tickets be x :

9 tickets ⇒ $ x

So,

5 tickets ⇒ $ 30

9 tickets ⇒ $ x

Now use cross multiplication to find the value of x :

5 x = 9 × 30

5 x = 270

Now divide both sides by 5.

x =  $ 54

Hope this helps you :-)

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

Answer 2

$54
30 divided by 5 is 6. then 6 times 9 is 54
